      Cet ouvrage s'inscrit dans une série de 4 tomes, intitulés La voix, s'adressant à tous ceux qui se préoccupent des problèmes vocaux, qu'il s'agisse de voix pathologique en quête d'un diagnostic et d'un traitement ou de voix normale en quête d'une meilleure pratique de la parole ou du chant. Le tome 2 est consacré aux troubles fonctionnels de la voix et aux mécanismes si complexes de leur constitution. Il étudie systématiquement les divers types de dysphonies, qu'elles soient dites simples, c'est-à-dire sans complication laryngée, ou au contraire compliquées (nodules, polypes, œdèmes, ulcères…), ou de formes particulières (aphonies, dysodie, troubles de la mue…). Les descriptions cliniques s'appuient sur l'étude de plusieurs centaines d'observations. Dans chaque cas, les indications thérapeutiques sont précisées. Destiné aux orthophonistes, aux phoniatres et aux pédagogues de la voix parlée et chantée, il s'adresse aussi aux professionnels de la voix désireux de s'informer d'une façon approfondie. Il sera également utile aux étudiants en médecine et en particulier aux futurs spécialistes ORL et se révélera vite indispensable au laryngologiste intéressé par les problèmes phoniatriques.

    • Emergency Radiology, An Issue of Radiologic Clinics of North America

      The practice of Emergency Radiology has undergone rapid change in the last decade: as imaging procedures are increasingly performed within short periods of time after the arrival of patients to the emergency room, the expectation for near real-time interpretations (often by subspecialists) has gained popularity. Larger emergency centers provide 24 hour on-site coverage by well trained radiologists, while others rely on the services of equally well trained radiologists located off-site, taking advantage of modern universal interconnectivity. Either way, radiologists’ input is increasingly affecting the immediate outcome of patients presenting with acute symptoms. Radiologists have embraced the challenge to protect patient safety by seeking evidence-based data to support the proper utilization of CT (including the use of alternative imaging modalities) and radiologists and CT manufacturers together have worked intensely to find optimal methods to deliver the inevitable radiation.
