Radiology of the Female Pelvic Organs represents the third text in Erich K. Lang's trilogy which includes the previously published titles Radiology of the Upper Urinary Tract and Radiology of the Lower Urinary Tract. This volume provides a comprehensive review of diseases of the female pelvic organs. The clinical picture and pathology are well covered, but of course the emphasis is on imaging of the female pelvic organs and on the interventional procedures used to treat maladies of these organ systems. The current volume departs from the preceding two works in that the major empha­ sis is on the new modalities of MRI, CT, and ultrasonography, including color Doppler. Professor Lang has brought together the foremost experts from around the world in each of the specific areas of radiology of the female pelvic organs. Special skills devel­ oped in each radiologic community are lucidly described. Several chapters describe the relative roles of the different new modalities and give guidance to the clinician in choosing the most appropriate imaging technique. The volume not only discusses diagnosis and staging but places a major emphasis on therapy and the evaluation of the effectiveness of various therapeutic modalities. The extensive literature citations catalog the experience of the experts worldwide and are not limited to any specific geo­ graphic area. This volume truly confirms that medicine has become a global effort with experts from throughout the world offering their own unique contributions.
