Features: This book is organized with the system as the framework, while also adopting a combination of system and technology in its writing. The entire book is divided into 13 volumes: General Theory Volume, Respiratory System Volume, Central Nervous System Volume, Cardiovascular System Volume, Digestive System Volume, Liver, Gallbladder, Pancreas, and Spleen Volume, Head and Neck Volume, Musculoskeletal System Volume, Urogenital System Volume, Breast Volume, Interventional Radiology Volume, Nuclear Medicine Imaging Volume, and Ultrasound Diagnostics Volume. Each volume is independently published in sequence. The guiding principle for the composition of the writing team is to unite the strength of the nation, combining scholars of all ages to collaboratively write the book. Therefore, all invited participants in writing this book are experts and scholars with high academic levels and certain reputation in certain fields of imaging medicine. This book primarily reflects the new level of contemporary imaging development. For various imaging technologies, examination methods, new signs, new theories, and new treatment methods that have been used or are about to be used in clinical practice, it provides a relatively detailed introduction based mainly on domestic data. For some technologies and methods that have been phased out or are about to be abandoned, they are only briefly described as a stage in the long history of development. When describing the imaging manifestations of diseases, attention is paid to the relationship between commonality and individuality, so that readers can correctly grasp the general imaging patterns of diseases. Based on common and frequently occurring diseases, the book also provides concise and brief descriptions of rare and uncommon diseases, hoping that it will not only be a standardized reading material for imaging medicine but also serve as an imaging dictionary, achieving the purpose of practicality. The book strives for concise, brief, fluent text, with a reasonable hierarchical structure, logicality, and coherence. Nomenclature and terminology are strictly standardized to ensure consistency throughout the book, avoiding colloquial language to enhance readability. In summary, we strive to make the content of this book scientifically sound, advanced, authoritative, and practical, making it a high-level, high-quality, and high-standard large-scale reference book for imaging medicine.
