Imaging of the Airways Functional and Radiologic Correlations -- Contents -- Preface -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction to Imaging Methodology and Airway Anatomy -- Bronchoscopic Evaluation of the Airways with CT Correlations -- Trachea and Central Bronchi -- Bronchiectasis -- Small Airway Diseases -- Functional Imaging of the Airways -- Index.
Written by recognized authorities on thoracic imaging, this volume is the first to examine all modalities-both noninvasive and invasive-for visualizing the airways. Emphasis is placed on correlating CT images with bronchoscopy, to aid in interpreting CT findings and in performing interventional bronchoscopic procedures. After a review of airway imaging techniques and anatomy, the book presents correlating CT and bronchoscopic images for a wide range of pathologic entities. Detailed chapters examine the trachea and central bronchi, the diagnosis of bronchiectasis, and the use of CT in diagnosing small airway disease. A chapter on functional imaging of the airways is also included.
