Obstetrical diagnosis by radiographic, ultrasonic, and nuclear medicine methods. By John A. Campbell, M.D., Williams‐Wilkins Co. First edition 1977. Part of Goldens Diagnostic Radiology Series. $29.00

Obstetrical diagnosis by radiographic, ultrasonic, and nuclear medicine methods. By John A.... This is a superb text on sectional anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis which goes into great detail in describing the complex interrelationships of intra-abdominal structures. The book is divided into seven sections with the first chapter illustrating multiple horizontal, saggital and coronal sections through an adult and pediatric cadaver. The remaining six chapters correlate the radiographic findings with this normal cross sectional anatomy and illustrate the changes seen with v’arious pathologic states. The chapters are divided as follows: Radiologic Anatomy, Effusions, Abscesses, Colonic Displacement, Masses in the Left Upper Quadrant and Masses in the Right Upper Quadrant. The radiographs are of excellent quality and the many examples of extraperitoneal air studies beautifully illustrate retroperitoneal anatomy. Some of the illustrations and line drawings are confusing and less than ideal, but the majority are very helpful in clarifying some new and exciting anatomic concepts. From the point of view of an ultrasonographer, this text poses three problems.

Abstract

This is a superb text on sectional anatomy of the abdomen and pelvis which goes into great detail in describing the complex interrelationships of intra-abdominal structures. The book is divided into seven sections with the first chapter illustrating multiple horizontal, saggital and coronal sections through an adult and pediatric cadaver. The remaining six chapters correlate the radiographic findings with this normal cross sectional anatomy and illustrate the changes seen with v’arious pathologic states. The chapters are divided as follows: Radiologic Anatomy, Effusions, Abscesses, Colonic Displacement, Masses in the Left Upper Quadrant and Masses in the Right Upper Quadrant. The radiographs are of excellent quality and the many examples of extraperitoneal air studies beautifully illustrate retroperitoneal anatomy. Some of the illustrations and line drawings are confusing and less than ideal, but the majority are very helpful in clarifying some new and exciting anatomic concepts. From the point of view of an ultrasonographer, this text poses three problems. First, much of the discussion is centered on the normal position of bowel structures and their displacement by mass lesions. This is difficult t o recognize or appreciate by ultrasound in most cases.
