Images in Urology: Diagnosis and Management Simon Bott, Uday Patel, Bob Djavan and Peter R. Carroll, Editors Springer, 2012; hardcover, 436 pages, 305 illustrations (152 in colour), £108.00. ISBN-10: 0857297686, ISBN-13: 978-0857297686 This well-illustrated and appropriately referenced book is aimed for urologists, radiologists and histopathologists. I think this is an extremely important book that all doctors will find useful. It is full of good quality radiology and pathology images for both common and rare urological problems. In the form of short and to the point questions and digestible explanations, it covers a wide range of topics in urology. The Editors have to be complemented on their efforts to collect and explain extraordinary images of urological, radiological and histopathological experts and to share their insights and experience. There are nine chapters covering most aspects of urology in a systematic way. The first chapter highlights fundamental scientific aspects behind creation of radiological and histopathological images. The following chapters cover kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, bladder, prostate, genital organs and retroperitonium. The final chapter gives a fantastic overview of urodynamics. Each chapter has been presented in the form of ‘cases’, which bring together clinical scenarios with relevant images (radiology and histopathology) and key questions followed by appropriate explanations. A list of the relevant references has also been included at the end of each case. This book will be a useful addition for medical practitioners looking after urology patients. Urologists and pathologists preparing for their examinations will find this a valuable resource whilst covering radiology and histopathological aspects. Kamran Ahmed, Urology Registrar/Hon.

This well-illustrated and appropriately referenced book is aimed for urologists, radiologists and histopathologists. I think this is an extremely important book that all doctors will fi nd useful. It is full of good quality radiology and pathology images for both common and rare urological problems. In the form of short and to the point questions and digestible
explanations, it covers a wide range of topics in urology.
The Editors have to be complemented on their efforts to collect and explain extraordinary images of urological, radiological and histopathological experts and to share their insights and experience. There are nine chapters covering most aspects of urology in a systematic way. The fi rst chapter highlights fundamental scientifi c aspects behind creation of radiological and histopathological images. The following chapters cover kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, bladder, prostate, genital organs and retroperitonium. The fi nal chapter gives a fantastic overview of urodynamics. Each chapter has been presented in the form of ‘ cases ’ , which bring
together clinical scenarios with relevant images (radiology and histopathology) and key questions followed by appropriate explanations.
A list of the relevant references has also been included at the end of each case. This book will be a useful addition for medical practitioners looking after urology patients. Urologists and pathologists preparing for their examinations will fi nd this a valuable resource whilst covering radiology and histopathological aspects.
