OverviewThis book is the first to cover the field of contrast media from basic sciences through to clinical practice. Textbook of Contrast Media provides the first exhaustive account of the use of contrast media in clinical practice. Edited by distinguished figures in the field, the book is divided into five main sections: history and background, X-ray contrast agents, MR contrast agents, ultrasound contrast agents, and future developments. Each chapter is fully referenced and benefits from the exensive use of high quality radiographs and illustrations.
