It is therefore important to know how to distinguish the healthy elderly from those in need of treatment as a sound basis for avoiding overdiagnosis and overtreatment. This aspect is a central theme in Geriatric Imaging, which covers a wide range of applications of different imaging techniques and clearly explains both the potential and the limitations of diagnostic imaging in geriatric patients. Individual sections are devoted to each major region or system of the body, and a concluding section focuses specifically on interventional procedures. The book, written by recognized experts in the field, is superbly illustrated and will be an ideal resource for geriatricians, radiologists, and trainees. 606 $aRadiology 606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aInternal medicine 606 $aFamily medicine 606 $aRadiology 606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aInternal Medicine 606 $aGeneral Practice and Family Medicine 615 0$aRadiology. 615 0$aGeriatrics. 615 0$aInternal medicine. 615 0$aFamily medicine. 615 14$aRadiology. 615 24$aGeriatrics. 615 24$aInternal Medicine. 615 24$aGeneral Practice and Family Medicine. 676 $a618.970754 701 $aGuglielmi$b Giuseppe$034863 701 $aPeh$b Wilfred C G$01756639 701 $aGuermazi$b Ali$01756640 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438132103321 996 $aGeriatric imaging$94194071 997 $aUNINA
