Description:
This book offers a unique insight into the
rapidly changing radiology service, and offers introductory chapters
which provide the fundamental underpinning knowledge required for safe
and effective GI practice. Subsequent chapters discuss the evidence base
related to a range of imaging procedures suitable for investigation of
upper and lower GI symptoms, supported by key pathology chapters. The
book also explores the range of treatments available for the more common
GI tract pathology.
