Understanding disease mechanisms is fundamental to interpreting clinical signs and radiological findings. This book offers a foundational overview of pathophysiological processes, focusing on cellular injury, inflammation, immune responses, and systemic disease patterns. It bridges the gap between medical science and clinical imaging, allowing radiographers to contextualize their observations.
