In the past, radiographs of the hand have been described as the "skeleton's calling card," showing manifestations of many different diseases. As hand and wrist imaging has become increasingly sophisticated, this observation has become more true than ever. This is a comprehensive, up-to-date textbook on imaging of the hand and wrist. In the first part of the book, the various imaging techniques are discussed in detail. Individual chapters are devoted to radiography, ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine. The second part of the book gives an authoritative review of the various pathologies...

This volume provides a multimodality imaging approach to the pathology of the foot and the ankle, covering both the various imaging techniques and all clinical aspects of diseases of these anatomic areas. The chapters on technique are compact but still deal comprehensively with all spe cific facets of the problem. The clinical chapters are well written, detailed and superbly illustrated. The editors succeeded in assembling an excellent group of international experts from the European continent as well as from the USA to cover all commonly held modern views and concepts on the topic. This...

Musculoskeletal studies account for an important proportion of the daily clinical practice of most radiologists. For many years following Rontgen's discovery of x-rays in 1895, these studies were confined to plain films and conventional tomography, which substantially limited the contribution of radiology in achieving better diagnosis and treatment of ortho pedic pathologic conditions. The advent of digital radiography, ultrasound, computer tomography and especially magnetic resonance imaging has greatly enhanced the potential of radiologic imaging in this field. Among the benefits to accrue...
