This reference on the use of high-resolution CT (HRCT) to evaluate diffuse lung disease. It details the diagnostic capabilities of HRCT, gives step-by-step instructions on examination technique, describes and illustrates normal lung anatomy, defines and demonstrates HRCT findings for a wide range of diseases, and explains how to interpet these findings. More than 250 illustrations show the precision with which HRCT reveals subtle anatomic changes associated with disease and delineates the characteristics of abnormalities, allowing a specific diagnosis or an accurate differential diagnosis. Close attention is given to the use of HRCT in guiding thoracic biopsies and in follow-up examinations to determine the efficacy of treatment. A glossary of HRCT terms is also included.
