DESCRIPTION:
Disappointing textbook This textbook is a disappointment. There are too few images for a radiology textbook that purports to offer an international perspective on occupational and environmental lung disease. There is too much unenlightening text and very little that is new. This is a small thin book, both literally and figuratively. It is way overpriced.
The system is also applicable to surveillance and screening for occupational and environmental respiratory diseases. The book is an authoritative guide to the recognition of dust diseases of the lung, using radiological imaging techniques, with special emphasis on high-resolution computerized tomography (CT). The classification is a powerful, essential tool for recording patient data on CT in a globally standardized semiquantitative way. The book is a valuable resource not only for radiologists but for all who work in occupational medicine and public health.. Many international experts collaborated in creating this groundbreaking work, a principal-coding system, and in developing reference films and imaging parameters for theInternational Classification of HRCT for Occupational and Environmental Respiratory Diseases
