Covering the entire spectrum of this rapidly changing field,
Diagnostic Imaging: Musculoskeletal Trauma, fourth edition, is an invaluable resource for general radiologists, specialized radiologists, and trainees-anyone who requires an
easily accessible, highly visual reference on today’s musculoskeletal imaging. Drs. Kambiz Motamedi, Donna G. Blankenbaker, and Kirkland W. Davis, along with a team of highly regarded experts, provide up-to-date information on
recent advances in surgical techniques as well as the understanding of specific traumatic musculoskeletal conditions to help you make informed decisions and support patient management at the point of care. The
image-rich design and succinct, bulleted text convey details quickly and include the latest literature references, making this book a useful learning tool as well as a handy reference for daily practice.
- 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 over 3,700 high-quality print images and illustrations (and nearly 3,400 additional images in the complimentary eBook), including radiology images, full-color illustrations, clinical photographs, intraoperative and arthroscopic images
- Uses succinct bulleted text and highly templated chapters for quick comprehension of essential information at the point of care
- Includes an eBook that allows you access to everything in the print version as well as additional images, text, and references, with the ability to search, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud; additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date
