To Do No Harm: DES and the Dilemmas of Modern Medicine
نویسنده
چکیده
This volume is a slim pocket-sized atlas which contains 41 CT images of the neck and larynx, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. Accompanying each radiograph is a line drawing of the anatomical section with each structure labeled. There is no text. As a pocket atlas, it might be useful for students and clinicians who want a quick reference to cross-sectional anatomy from the neck through the pelvis. Unfortunately, the atlas does not include scans of the head, an omission which sacrifices completeness for convenient size.
