the patient. The publisher does not provide medical advice or guidance and this work is merely a reference tool. Healthcare professionals, and

Given continuous, rapid advances in medical science and health information, independent professional verification of medical diagnoses,
indications, appropriate pharmaceutical selections and dosages, and treatment options should be made and healthcare professionals should
consult a variety of sources. When prescribing medication, healthcare professionals are advised to consult the product information sheet (the
manufacturer’s package insert) accompanying each drug to verify, among other things, conditions of use, warnings and side effects and
identify any changes in dosage schedule or contraindications, particularly if the medication to be administered is new, infrequently used or has a
narrow therapeutic range. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, no responsibility is assumed by the publisher for any injury

The sixth edition of this textbook is dedicated first and foremost to our uroradiology
colleagues, many of whom have served as mentors and sources of inspiration to each of
us. Their scientific contributions are the basis of modern uroradiology upon which this
book is based.
Among our colleagues in uroradiology, we especially miss Carl Sandler, who coauthored
all previous editions. He was a good friend whom we all miss dearly.
We also dedicate this book to our families, who have lovingly tolerated our devotion to
this endeavor.

Preface

The first edition of the Textbook of Uroradiology grew out of a discussion among Drs. Ronald McCallum,
Carl Sandler, and Reed Dunnick at the annual meeting of the Society of Uroradiology in Scheveningen,
The Netherlands, in May 1986. It was published by Williams & Wilkins in 1990. When Dr. McCallum
retired, Drs. Dunnick and Sandler were joined by Drs. E. Stephen Amis and Jeffrey H. Newhouse, who
had written their own textbook, Essentials of Uroradiology, published by Little, Brown and Company.
These four authors completed the second, third, and fourth editions. Dr. Amis declined participation in the
fifth edition due to his own busy schedule, and Drs. Richard Cohan and Stuart Silverman were recruited
to each contribute a chapter in an area of their special expertise. After publication of the fifth edition, Dr.
Sandler, a Professor of Radiology at the University of Texas, at Houston, passed away. Drs. Cohan and
Katherine Maturen were recruited to participate in the creation of this, the sixth edition. The goal of the
textbook remains to include material the reader ought to know, not everything there is to know.
With each revision, much new information is added. In order to keep the book a manageable size,
older or outdated material is deleted. The excretory urogram, for decades the primary imaging modality of
the urinary tract, is rarely, if ever performed and has been deleted. The chapter on anatomy has been
removed, and pertinent information has been included in the chapter on congenital anomalies and other
organ-specific chapters. The chapter on examination techniques has also been eliminated, reflecting the
demise of many traditional uroradiologic examinations. The chapter on contrast material has been
streamlined to focus on current usage.
Chapter authorship has often been rotated to help freshen the material. In keeping with the tradition
started with the first edition, individual authorship of separate chapters has not been designated, reflecting
our view that the textbook is a collaborative effort. As in prior editions, “suggested readings” are
included at the end of each chapter to provide a guide for the reader who desires more detailed
information on a particular topic, but no individual references were deemed necessary.
We continue to expect that the reader will find Genitourinary Radiology, Sixth Edition, a useful
addition to his or her library and hope that this new version will be met with the same level of acceptance
enjoyed by its predecessors.
