Description
Summary:"Magnetic resonance imaging has transformed pediatric and adolescent musculoskeletal medicine. As MRI becomes the advanced imaging modality of choice for pediatric, orthopedic, and sports medicine specialists, the need grows for a comprehensive text geared toward the practicing clinician, as well as diagnostic imaging specialists. Pediatric and Adolescent Musculoskeletal MRI: A Case-Based Approach is a user-friendly resource that covers more than a hundred MRI cases of commonly encountered and unusual pediatric conditions, including the rapidly growing area of sports injuries in older children and adolescents: Each case is presented as an unknown, and the progression from initial findings to diagnosis, discussion, illustrated differential considerations, and orthopedic perspectives make this book ideal for self-education. With nearly a thousand images to complement clear, concise text, this reference is a unique and useful tool for all physicians involved in the musculoskeletal imaging and diagnosis of pediatric and adolescent patients."--Jacket
