About this title

Review

"I was not familiar with the Textbook of Gastrointestinal Radiology by Gore and Levine prior to receiving this review copy. I now know what I have been missing. This weighty tome in two volumes provides a complete and up to date coverage of the state of the art in GI Radiology.
Every chapter has been updated and revised with the addition of several new chapters. This book will be essential for radiologists working in the field as a reference source but will also be of great interest to gastroenterologists and surgeons alike."
