Pediatric Thoracic Imaging

"This comprehensive review of pediatric chest imaging addresses disorders of the lung, mediastinum, heart, and chest wall. The authors describe the book as a needed to fill a gap in the radiology literature on the imaging of thoracic abnormalities in children.

The audience is pediatric radiologists, radiology trainees, and clinicians who encounter children with thoracic disorders. It is written at a level appropriate for more senior trainees (R3, R4, and fellows), and attending radiologists. The authors are well known in this field.

The book covers pulmonary parenchymal abnormalities, disorders of the airway, mediastinal abnormalities, and disorders of the heart. These important topics are thoroughly discussed. Overall, this is a good resource for senior level radiology trainees and practicing radiologists."
