MDCT : A Practical Approach
Computed tomography (CT) is the most rapidly evolving medical imaging technology. This book describes current examination techniques and advanced clinical applications of state-of-the-art multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scanners in chapters contributed by several distinguished radiologists and clinicians. Each chapter is written from a practical perspective so that radiologists, residents, medical physicists, and radiology technologists can obtain relevant information about MDCT applications in neuroradiology, cardiac imaging, chest, abdominal, and musculoskeletal radiology subspecialties. Each coauthor provides pertinent illustrations and tables for better understanding of current and advanced applications of MDCT scanners. Readers will benefit from the experience these authors describe in chapters on MDCT technology, contrast administration techniques, contrast adverse effects and their management, and advanced applications of MDCT.
Irritable Bowel syndrome I.B.S
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder with a range of symptoms that significantly affect quality of life for patients. Is currently one of the most common disorders of the digestive system in the Western society? Almost 2 out of 10 people suffer from IBS, and it is associated with abdominal pain, bloating and altered stool consistency and imposes a heavy burden for the affected patients. The difficulty of differential diagnosis and its treatment may significantly delay initiation of optimal therapy. Hence, persons with IBS often self-treat symptoms with non-prescribed pharmacological regimens and/or complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) and by modifying diet and daily activities.

Intelligent cryptocurrency trading assistant
With blockchain being invented in 2008, cryptocurrencies have grown steadily through the years. Cryptocurrencies continue today to be an extremely interesting phenomenon. Having quickly achieved popularity and becoming very popular, cryptocurrencies continue to be a profitable investment tool, capable of generating huge profits on exchanges and transactions. Being a professional trader is not an easy task to achieve, a professional trader needs to observe and process multiple factors and events that affect the cryptocurrency market to make the right decision. What makes this process challenging is that some of the factors cannot be predicted or calculated but rather, their changes should be observed and comprehended, and an action should be taken in response quickly in order to maximize the profit or minimize the loss.

Ileo meccanico dell’intestino tenue : Aspetti TC e correlazioni eco-radiografiche = Mechanical ileus of the small intestine : CT aspects and echo-radiographic correlations
Mechanical occlusion of the small intestine is a frequently encountered clinical problem, whose clinical-instrumental management is made difficult by the complexity of the mechanisms responsible for the occlusive picture. The role of the radiologist is to promptly guide the therapeutic process on the basis of a correct interpretation of the iconographic pictures. The purpose of this volume - the only one of its kind - is to relate the pathophysiology of occlusion to imaging. The rich iconography, which ranges from clinical onset to resolution, emphasizes the role of multidetector computed tomography with intravenous contrast, which is the current gold standard. However, the correlations with the echo-radiographic methods are not forgotten, which retain an effective diagnostic role, with a low biological and economic cost. The mechanical ileus of the small intestine is a striking example in support of the dream of many professionals: that, that is, to have a figure of a fine abdominal emergency radiologist, an expert in organ and disease and not only in the machine, as often unfortunately it happens.
Hypersensitivity = فرط الحساسية
فرط التحسس هو عبارة عن ردود فعل لجهاز المناعة تسبب ظواهر غير مرغوب بها تشمل تضرر الأنسجة و الإمراض المتعددة هذه الظواهر المرضية الناجمة عن نشاط جهاز المناعة تسمى ظواهر فرط التحسس حيث إن جهاز المناعة يحمي الجسم من الأجسام الضارة الخارجية وخاصة الملوثات و السبب الأكثر شيوعا لحدوث ظواهر فرط التحسس هي عدم تمييز جهاز المناعة أحيانا بين الأجسام الذاتية وبين الأجسام الدخيلة هذا التمييز يشكل صفه ضرورية لجهاز المناعة لضمان أداء وضيفي سليم وحتى ليقوم جهاز المناعة بمهاجمة الأنسجة الذاتية أمراض فرط التحسس من الممكن ان تحدث بسبب رد فعل مناعي مفرط ضد مسببات خارجية مثلما هو الحال مع إمراض الحساسية .

Headache and Chronic Pain Syndromes
Headache and Chronic Pain Syndromes provides a case-based approach to state-of-the-art evaluation and treatment of patients with common chronically painful conditions. Offering strategies for rapidly evaluating and treating pain complaints by body region, this innovative title also provides patient educational handouts that explain the diagnosis and treatment in easy-to-understand language for each condition. Tools for implementing both medication and non-medication therapies, such as exercises and relaxation techniques, are also included. Each chapter opens with typical presentations of three to five common patient scenarios, including pediatric, adult, and geriatric patients. A targeted approach for patient assessment is provided and applied to each scenario, showing how to rapidly identify important clues to distinguish among common diagnoses, including both benign and malignant causes of pain. Standard treatment regimens are then provided for each patient, along with patient-friendly educational flyers for each common pain condition. Figures and drawings help provide ready identification of these common chronic pain syndromes.
