"With this hands-on resource, you'll learn from the best in the field, using cases drawn from the teaching files of today's leading medical centers. The book includes 350 real cases, encompassing all imaging modalities - including radiography, CT, MR imaging, nuclear imaging, and sonography - as well as all categories of musculoskeletal disease, including trauma, tumors, joint disease, endocrine and metabolic bone disease, infections, congenital and developmental conditions, and musculoskeletal manifestations of systemic disease. Each case emphasizes specific teaching points, raises clinically relevant issues, satisfies intellectual curiosity, and reflects the particular interest of the authors."--BOOK JACKET.
