The atlas uses the latest endoscopic imaging techniques as well as double contrast radiography, CT, isotopic scintigraphy, ultrasonography, MRI, positron emission tomography, and other state-of-the-art technologies to deliver the most advanced and detailed views available. This edition has a new Associate Editor, Neil Kaplowitz, MD, whose special area of expertise is hepatology. Sixteen new chapters focus specifically on liver disease.
