Description
Professor of Clinical Radiology, Orthopedic Surgery, and Chief of Musculoskeletal Imaging at the University of California San Francisco, Lynne S. Steinbach, MD lays out in detail how the use of MR Imaging is the preferred imaging method to evaluate the tiny structures of the wrist. She shows how MRI identifies pathology of the scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligaments, extrinsic ligaments, and triangular fibrocartilage, as well as providing information preoperatively regarding the extent of masses and their relationship to adjacent tendons and nerves. In addition, she explains when the clinician should be suspicious of normal radiographs, as in cases of possible early carpal bone avascular necrosis (AVN) or bone marrow edema syndrome. Accompanying high resolution images serve to demonstrate some of the more prevalent presentations.
The RadGuidance® series of ebooks offers practicing clinicians - both primary care doctors and specialists - a quick and easy reference to over 100 distinct conditions, and how state-of-the-art imaging should be applied within the context of diagnosis, preoperative staging and therapy monitoring.
Authored by board certified radiologists who also teach at the finest medical schools in the U.S. and abroad, each book is presented in a clear and concise manner meant to be read in less than an hour, yet contains all the necessary information upon which to base a decision on when to order advanced imaging studies for the particular disease process under review.
The RadGuidance series offers referring physicians and radiology students the opportunity to confirm suspicions and validate decisions by accessing precisely targeted information quickly and economically as cases present in daily practice.
