Müller's Imaging of the Chest, 2nd Edition, authored by Drs. Christopher M. Walker and Jonathan H. Chung, stands as a definitive resource in chest radiology, encompassing the latest diagnostic modalities and interventional techniques. This comprehensive handbook spans from a foundational exploration of normal anatomy to in-depth expert coverage, first focusing on how patients present in clinical practice, then delving into diagnosis or diagnostic categories. This user-friendly format empowers practitioners to efficiently choose and interpret the most appropriate imaging studies for the everyday challenges they encounter in thoracic imaging.

In addition to its extensive content, this edition offers a wealth of new information on lung cancer screening, providing detailed guidance on the technique required for performing a lung cancer screening CT and interpreting these examinations using ACR Lung-RADS. It also includes four all-new chapters: Idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis, Interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features, Non-infectious complications of lung and stem cell transplantation, and Leukemia.

Furthermore, the book provides timely updates on recent advancements in interstitial lung disease diagnosis, diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH), interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features (IPAF), pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis, and numerous other topics. It elucidates the recent CT classification in the diagnosis of usual interstitial pneumonia/idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (UIP/IPF) and outlines the specific features necessary to classify a CT into one of four distinct patterns.

The text also delves into current topics such as bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections, as well as new staging and histologic classifications for various lung neoplasms, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. With over 3,100 superior, large digital-quality images (many in full color), Müller's Imaging of the Chest, 2nd Edition, vividly depicts all aspects of chest radiology, making it an indispensable tool for practitioners and students alike.
