Resnick's Bone and Joint Imaging

Distilling all of the most important  content from Dr. Donald L. Resnick's highly esteemed, five-volume  Diagnosis of Bone and Joint Disorders into a single, concise source,  Bone and Joint Imaging, 4th Edition focuses on the specific,  state-of-the-art musculoskeletal imaging and interpretation knowledge  practitioners need today. This highly anticipated new edition has been  fully revised from cover to cover for a remarkably thorough, yet focused  and pragmatic, source of clinical guidance. Dr. Resnick’s carefully  chosen editorial team, Drs. Jon A. Jacobson, Christine B. Chung, Mini N.  Pathria (all former Resnick fellows) and Mark J. Kransdorf (co-author  of the previous edition), are well-equipped to expertly address the many  recent changes in musculoskeletal radiology since the previous edition.  Authoritative, easy-to-read text and more than 3,800 exquisite images  demonstrate every principle and capture the characteristic presentation  of the wide range of disorders you’re most likely to encounter in  everyday practice.

• Features  a newly revised, streamlined organization with easy-to-digest sections  on infection; trauma; osteoarticular, nerve, and muscle derangements;  arthropathy; systemic diseases (metabolic, endocrine, hematologic, and  connective tissue); tumors; interventional radiology; post-operative  radiology; and pediatric imaging.
