Correctly recognize and locate foreign bodies! This book contains over 1700 high quality radiological illustrations and photographs of medical foreign bodies on X-ray and CT. Iatrogenically introduced foreign materials are a broad field. Physicians are increasingly confronted with medically introduced foreign bodies in radiological diagnostics. These must be identified and physicians must know and recognize the correct position or, if necessary, incorrect position as well as further complications. For the first time, this volume provides you with a guide to the diagnosis and evaluation of numerous foreign materials in the following body regions: Skull/brain: duraplasty, bone flaps, shunts and valves, coils and stents, etc. Eye: oil, fillings, artificial lenses, prostheses, cerclages and much more. Teeth: post teeth, bridges and implants, etc. Ear: Hearing aids, implants, and more. Skeleton/spine: osteosynthesis material (wires, screws, plates), vertebral body, intervertebral discand joint replacement, scoliosis therapy, kyphoplasty, etc. You will also learn the special features in the imaging of Medication pumps Accidental foreign bodies: corpus alienum, gossypiboma, aspiration and ingestion Traumatic foreign bodies: perforation, blast injuries, gunshot wounds, etc. know.
