Wolters Kluwer Health, 2015. — 697 p.Teaching files are one of the hallmarks of education in radiology. When there was a need for a comprehensive series to provide the resident and practicing radiologist with the kind of personal consultationwith the experts normally found only in the setting of a teaching hospital, Wolters Kluwer was proud tohave created a series that answers this need.
Actual cases have been culled from extensive teaching files in major medical centers. The discussions presented mimic those performed on a daily basis between residents and faculty members in all
radiology departments.
This series is designed so that each case can be studied as an unknown. A consistent format is used topresent each case. A brief clinical history is given, followed by several images. Then, relevant findings,differential diagnosis, and final diagnosis are given, followed by a discussion of the case. The authorsthereby guide the reader through the interpretation of each case.
Last year we made additional changes to the series. Cases have been randomized to better prepare
the reader for the challenges of the clinical setting. In addition, to answer the growing demand for
electronic content, we have included more cases online, which has left us, in turn, able to offer a morecost-effective product.
We hope that this series will continue to be a trusted teaching tool for radiologists at any stage of
training or practice and that it will also be a benefit to clinicians whose patients undergo these imaging
studies.
