Offers a well-designed approach to imaging musculoskeletaltrauma
Medical imaging plays an important role in identifying fracturesand helping the patient return to regular activities as soon aspossible. But in order to identify the fracture, and describe allthe relevant associated injuries, the radiologist first needs tounderstand normal anatomy and the mechanisms of fractures.Imaging Musculoskeletal Trauma reviews common fracture anddislocation mechanisms and provides up-to-date guidelines on theuse and interpretation of imaging tests.
Designed for use by professionals in radiology, orthopedics,emergency medicine, and sports medicine, this book offers aconcise, systematic approach to imaging musculoskeletal trauma.Replete with easily accessible information, including well-designedtables and lists, the book features radiology report checklists foreach anatomic site, numerous radiographs and CT and MRI images,simple illustrations for common fracture classification schemes,examples of common and serious injuries in the musculoskeletalsystem, and a chapter devoted to fracturecomplications--including complications relating to the use ofhardware in treating injuries.
This well-designed guide teaches professional and student usersto:
* Identify normal anatomy relevant to interpretation inmusculoskeletal studies
* Describe common fracture and dislocation mechanisms
* Describe fractures using appropriate terminology
* Recommend appropriate imaging studies for various clinicalsituations
* Use a systematic approach to interpret imaging studies
* Provide a clear and relevant radiology report
* Recognize complications associated with fractures and fracturetreatment
Complete with on-call issues, common traumas, and speciallyhighlighted "do-not-miss" fractures, this is an invaluable resourcefor everyone involved with the imaging of musculoskeletaltrauma.
