Thieme Publishers, part of STM publisher Thieme Publishing Group, Germany, has launched 'Dx-Direct', a new series of radiology books in a handy, pocket-sized format. Comprehensive in scope, the 12-book series covers all the main subspecialties in radiology, with each book presenting all the cases that radiologists are likely to encounter in daily practice.
The Dx-Direct series is claimed to be ideal for residents and trainees seeking concise, portable references for managing the most common problems in the clinical setting. Each book in the series is organised to distill the essential information in a minimal amount of pages. For each problem, the book provides concise descriptions of epidemiology, etiology, imaging modality, findings, clinical presentation, treatment options, course, prognosis, differential diagnosis, and tips and pitfalls. High-quality diagnostic images demonstrate key concepts in each book.
The first six books in the series are Brain Imaging, Head and Neck Imaging, Cardiac Imaging, Gastrointestinal Imaging, Spinal Imaging and Breast Imaging. The publisher will bring out six books in 2008. These include Pediatric Imaging, Musculoskeletal Imaging, Urogenital Imaging, Vascular Imaging, Thoracic Radiology and Interventional Radiology.
