From the reviews:

The content of the book is divided into 9 parts & . Each chapter is enriched by very precise, well reproduced images, explanations about the surgical technique/s employed & and an updated reference list. & Quite an impressive book to be recommended to surgeons & and to radiologists (who have to answer surgeons requests in the best and most precise way) a book to be kept at hand and used in the daily routine in any department. (G. Beluffi, La radiologia medica, Vol. 118, 2013)

This book is a get out of jail free card for every radiologist and every surgeon who has to deal with patients following abdominal surgery. & The text is commendably readable and concise, making it a very good bench book for quick referral when busy lists and impatient surgeons make prompt reporting essential. & My advice can only be get a copy, keep it close to you; it will become a good friend.
