In the last decade, since the first edition of this book, there have been many new developments in all aspects of tropical medicine, and imaging has also made great progress. Equally important, tropical diseases are no longer confined to the tropics, but are brought throughout the world by travellers and migration. The diagnosis may often be made with the help of modern imaging techniques. The Imaging of Tropical Diseases brings together in two volumes the wide range of images which are possible today, and correlates them with their epidemiology, pathology, laboratory and clinical findings. This is a unique book which will be of immense value to all who are concerned with the care of patients who suffer from tropical diseases.

The Imaging of Tropical Diseases provides a comprehensive, and profusely illustrated description of the common and uncommon images which will be found in a wide range of tropical diseases, correlated with the clinical and laboratory findings, and the epidemiology and pathology. Volume 1 includes Amebiasis, Schistosomiasis, Hydatid Disease, Chagas' Disease, Tuberculosis, the Mycoses, Taeniasis (Tapeworms) and Cystircercosis, and also AIDS as seen in the tropics. Each chapter is an in-depth study with many images at all stages of the infections. This is a unique book which will be of immense value, not only to all those in the practice of tropical medicine, but also to help recognition and understanding of the unusual illnesses which may be seen in travellers and immigrants..
