Hard to Find book
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Is a radiological finding normal or pathologic? This borderline between the two states presents a daunting challenge to radiologists and orthopedic surgeons on a daily basis. Thieme proudly presents the updated and expanded fifth edition of the landmark text generations of physicians have used to differentiate borderline findings!
Redesigned for optimal use, the book is organized according to diagnostic questions raised by clinical findings, radiographic findings, or both. You'll find all possible variants in five pathologic categories: anomaly; trauma; necroses; inflammation; and tumor. The book provides imaging examples of the entire body, from the skull base, shoulder, and clavicle, to lower spine, knees, and the feet. More than 4,200 high-quality illustrations give clear examples of potential findings.
Key features of this historic text:
This book is the encyclopedic resource that will expand your knowledge of findings in skeletal radiology and enhance your diagnostic skills. No personal or professional library is complete without this new standard-bearer in the field!
International acclaim for previous editions:
Excellent...the 'bible' of anomalies and variants...much worthwhile material...should be available to everyone interpreting skeletal radiographs... --Radiology
This text must hold a record for a continuously relevant, frequently updated radiological reference...all of the illustrations are state-of-the-art...an invaluable references. --The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery
This is the new edition of this standard radiological work. The last English edition appeared in 1968, but the present updated and enlarged 4th edition is totally re-written and practically a new book. Every medical faculty dealing with interpretation of radiographs will just have to have a copy of this work! Skeletal radiology makes up more than 50% of the daily routine of an X-ray department. Without knowledge of the normal situation and its variability, a correct interpretation especially in the fields of traumatology and tumour radiology is impossible. A daily handbook of the normal skeletal X-ray anatomy with numerous anomalies and variants - common but also rare practical problematic findings of both children and adults are shown. This new edition conforms to a modern didactic approach: after an introduction that relates the normal findings during growth and in adults, each section describes the variants and anomalies, continues with a discussion of injuries and necroses, and closes with a presentation of acquired conditions. The exposition invokes cardinal radiologic features, such as configuration, contour, density, etc.
As in the previous editions, the presentation of conventional radiographic images prevails since plain films remain the primary examination in diagnosing skeletal conditions. If further evaluation is indicated, the appropriate supplemental examinations, such as scintigraphy or computed tomography, are mentioned and at times illustrated."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
