Diagnostic Imaging - E-Book: Musculoskeletal Trauma, 4th Edition
Key Features
- Contains 250 up-to-date chapters that guide you through all important musculoskeletal trauma and sports medicine entities, including postoperative imaging for foot and ankle surgery, injuries to core muscles, and peripheral nerve injuries as they relate to specific musculoskeletal injuries/trauma
- Presents the advantages and disadvantages of specific imaging techniques—ultrasound, CT, MR, radiography, and nuclear medicine—for diagnoses, including new imaging guidelines such as the use of 3T MR vs. MR arthrography
- Explores topics specific to pediatric patients, including dedicated chapters on child abuse and growth plate (physis) injuries
- Covers new musculoskeletal consensus papers regarding imaging recommendations, new criteria for diagnoses, and new terminology
- Features new discussions of “ramp lesions” (injuries that occur at the margin of the medial meniscus); rotator cuff anatomy and tears; and evolution of arthroscopy techniques to allow better assessment of these injuries in the operating room
- Features 6,800+ high-quality images (3,700 in print with an additional 3,100+ images in the complimentary eBook), including radiology images, full-color illustrations, clinical photographs, intraoperative and arthroscopic images, and gross pathology photographs
