Imaging for Plastic Surgery

Preoperative imaging is increasingly being adopted for preoperative planning in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Accurate preoperative analysis can reduce the length of operations and maximize surgical design and dissection techniques. Imaging for Plastic Surgery covers the techniques, applications, and potentialities of medical imaging technology in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Presenting state-of-the-art research on evolving imaging modalities, this cutting-edge text: Provides a practical introduction to imaging modalities that can be used during preoperative planning Addresses imaging principles of the face, head, neck, breast, trunk, and extremities Identifies the strengths and weaknesses of all available imaging modalities Demonstrates the added value of imaging in different clinical scenarios Comprised of contributions from world-class experts in the field, Imaging for Plastic Surgery is an essential imaging resource for surgeons, radiologists, and patient care professionals.

He has published more than 25 papers and 10 book chapters, and has edited textbooks including this first general imaging text for reconstructive plastic surgery. Prof. Diego Ribuffo is a European board-certified plastic surgeon, and combines clinical practice with teaching and research at Sapienza University in Rome, Italy. His main clinical interests are reconstructive microsurgery and breast surgery. He has authored more than 200 publications, 2 books, and has given more than 100 presentations at national and international meetings. He has won several scientific prizes, and is on the editorial board of two international journals. After completing two fellowships in Atlanta and Melbourne, and being associate professor for eight years at Cagliari University, he is now back in his home university, where he currently serves as associate professor in plastic surgery in the Department of Surgery "P Valdoni".
