"Excellent for anyone evaluating orthopaedic patients...A good reference for brushing up on the lesser-used tests that are needed on occasion in a clinical practice...A good addition to the libraries of practitioners who wish to sharpen their clinical diagnostic techniques."JOSPT
MRI has transformed the field of pediatric and adolescent musculoskeletal imaging.
When the more senior (and gray haired) of the two authors completed his pediatric
radiology training, orthopedic radiology was a primarily plain film based discipline,
occasionally supplemented by arthrography. Although much could be gleaned from...
The cytological diagnosis of soft tissue tumours, based on fine needle aspirates, has been debated and at times dis couraged except in the diagnosis of lipoma. Soft tissue tumours are relatively rare in spite of the fact that more than 100 benign subtypes, over 50 variants of sarcoma and a number of 'border-line' entities have been...
This book elucidates on the examination technique, the sonographic changes in musculoskeletal rheumatic involvement and the ultrasound assessment of joint rheumatic diseases. The atlas is enriched with several figures, in which the US picture is compared with that of conventional radiography, CT and MRI. It provides a unique collection of...
This book provides a perspective on the current status of bioimaging technologies developed to assess the quality of musculoskeletal tissue with an emphasis on bone and cartilage. It offers evaluations of scaffold biomaterials developed for enhancing the repair of musculoskeletal tissues. These bioimaging techniques include micro-CT, nano-CT,...
This volume presents both the radiologist's and the pathologist's approach to differential diagnosis of musculoskeletal tumors and tumor-like lesions and details the radiologic and histopathologic features helpful in confirming a diagnosis. The book is illustrated with over 1,200 radiographs, CT and MR images, full-color...
Because of developments in powerful computer technology, computational techniques, advances in a wide spectrum of diverse technologies, and other advances coupled with cross disciplinary pursuits between technology and its greatly significant applied implications in human body processes, the field of biomechanics is evolving as a broadly...
Because of rapid developments in computer technology and computational techniques, advances in a wide spectrum of technologies, coupled with cross-disciplinary pursuits between technology and its application to human body processes, the field of biomechanics continues to evolve. Many areas of significant progress include dynamics of musculoskeletal...

Organisms reproduce to ensure the continued survival of their respective species. For humans, our ability to produce offspring and contribute to genetic variability in the world is made possible by our body's reproductive system. In "The Reproductive System", learn how the development of the reproductive systems in both males...
As a critical part of human physiology, the endocrine system controls the chemical messengers that help our body function. Learn about how the endocrine system works with this great book.
The human body is an incredibly complex and amazing structure. At best, it is a source of strength, beauty, and wonder. We can compare the...
Orthopaedic surgeons, paediatricians and radiologists
all deal with the problem of dislocation
and dysplasia of the infant hip. If dysplasia
and displacement of the infant hip are described
together under the heading “Disorders of Hip
Maturation” then together they constitute the
commonest disease of the...
