The goal of Emergency Imaging of At-Risk Patients is to
bring together in one book emergency findings in atrisk
patient populations with unique clinical and imaging
presentations. We elected to focus on emergency
conditions in a diverse group of vulnerable patients. It
is challenging to assess at-risk patients due to a myriad
of factors, including atypical clinical pictures, normal
physiological changes, delays in seeking medical care,
comorbidities, and blunted inflammatory responses.
History and physical examination can be misleading
in at-risk patients, and imaging plays a crucial role in
effective triage of vulnerable patients.
The book draws on the vast clinical experience of
emergency and trauma radiologists from the largest
academic medical centers across North America. The
authors present basic and advanced emergency imaging
concepts and discuss subtle imaging findings that
will be useful for radiologists in training and more seasoned
imagers, as well as emergency physicians, general,
trauma and orthopedic surgeons, pediatricians,
obstetricians and gynecologists, and critical care physicians
looking for an update on this difficult topic.
