The abdomen is like the ocean which grabs innumerable pearls into its depth. Similarly an abdomen hides secrets of many diseases of mankind.
During the past two decades, the diagnostic modalities of radiological imaging has taken rapid strides in discovering the causes of many diseases which in turn has made their treatment quickly and to the point.
In this book we have tried to cover most of the modalities though in short, in order to achieve our aim of providing maximum knowledge with minimum effort. For this, we are grateful to ultrasonologists Dr Alka Gupta and Dr Gaurav Jain and CT technicians Mr Anil Daboo, Joby Devasia, Madam Julka and Mrs Rekha for their valuable contributions. We are also grateful to Dr Anand Rahalkar and Dr Nagbhushan Seshadri for their help. All the dynamic doctors and staff of Goyal MRI and Diagnostic Centre, New Delhi have willingly provided many of the good scans included in the book
The last but not the least the credit goes to Shri Jitendar P Vij and Mr Ankit Vij Managing Directors of Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd for bringing out such an attractive and informative book.
