This is one of the first books to deal specifically with imaging of the entire spectrum of hematological malignancies. The use of the latest imaging modalities is well described, and an important aspect of the book is the role of imaging techniques in differentiating between manifestations of the underlying disease and complications of treatment. In the first chapter, magnetic resonance imaging of the bone marrow is discussed in detail. The following chapters describe exhaustively the imaging features of hematological malignancies, supported by thorough radiological and histological illustrations and tables. The third part documents the effects of therapy on each anatomical group of organs in patients treated in Hematology. The last part details the interventional procedures employed for diagnosis, evaluation of treatment and also therapeutic purposes. Each of the 28 chapters is written by an internationally recognized expert, making this book the most current and complete treatment of this subject available. It should be of great interest to radiologists and hematologists.
