Book Description

Radiology for Anaesthetists provides a highly illustrated guide to diagnostic imaging relevant to anaesthesia and intensive care, within a Question and Answer format. Interpretation or X-ray, Ultrasound and MRI images, in order to clear a closed airway or to administer a difficult local anaesthetic, constitutes a key part of the FRCA and equivalent postgraduate examinations. Extensive Question and Answer sections follow a similar format to the structured clinical component of the Fellowship Exam and systematic progression in the difficulty of cases allows a steady development in knowledge. There is a carefully balanced mix between pre-operative assessment, complications of anaesthesia or surgical procedures, adult intensive care and neonatal intensive care.
