On-Call Radiology presents case discussions on the most common and important clinical emergencies and their corresponding imaging findings encountered on-call. Cases are divided into thoracic, gastrointestinal and genitourinary, neurological and non-traumatic spinal, paediatric, trauma, interventional and vascular imaging. Iatrogenic complications are also discussed.
Each case is presented as a realistic clinical scenario and includes a clinical history and request for imaging. Multi-modality imaging examples and a case discussion on the diagnosis and basic management, with emphasis on important radiological findings, are also presented.
This book combines a case-based discussion format with practical advice on imaging decision making in the acute setting. It also offers guidance on radiology report writing and techniques, with a focus on relevant positive and negative findings to pass on to referring clinicians. On-call Radiology offers invaluable knowledge and practical tips for any on-call radiologist.

Features
- Includes relevant imaging interpretation skills as well as an in-depth discussion on the clinical pathologies and the role of imaging in the general diagnostic pathway
- Provides a useful on-call guide, combining a case-based discussion format with practical advice on how to decide on what needs to be imaged in an acute setting
- Offers guidance on radiology report writing and techniques, with a focus on relevant positive and negative findings to pass on to referring clinicians
- Consolidates all aspects of imaging one would potentially encounter whilst on-call.
