خرید و دانلود نسخه کامل کتاب Research Methods in Radiology: A Practical Guide

Research Methods in Radiology provides concise, practical insights on how to design clinical and  experimental studies in diagnostic imaging. This unique resource  encompasses contributions from leaders in academic radiology as well as  top epidemiologists, biostatisticians, and librarians with vast  multidisciplinary and radiology research experience. The material  reflects years of expertise teaching core biostatistics in radiology  principles to residents, fellows, radiologists, and epidemiologists.

Given  the vast amount of published information on research methodology and  statistics in radiology, the authors’ goal was to write a high-yield  review and study tool rather than a comprehensive book. Key topics are  succinctly addressed in each chapter, including measurements in  radiology; decision analysis in radiology; and systemic reviews,  evidence-based imaging, and knowledge translation. Online exercises  related to each topic enable residents to prepare for radiology board  examinations and research radiologists to apply knowledge to clinical  studies.

Key Highlights

• Introductory  chapters on analysis of diagnostic tests, linear and logistic  regression, meta-analysis, statistical inference, and economic  evaluation provide easy-to-follow tutorials
• Each chapter includes learning objectives, basic concepts, supplementary tables, and ancillary online material
• Case studies with images, graphs, and tables highlight primary “take home” points
• Sample size calculations are illustrated for a wide range of research questions
• Code is included for use in R, free open-source software for statistical analysis

This  book is an indispensable review of research methodology for radiology  students and residents. Practicing clinicians will also benefit from  this precisely focused reference tool on clinical and experimental  research.
