Overview

This volume covers the broad spectrum of imaging methods and abnormalities of relevance in the diagnostic workup of the shoulder. In the first part of the book, individual chapters are devoted to radiography, arthrography, computed tomography and CT arthrography, magnetic resonance imaging and MR arthrography, ultrasound and interventional procedures. Controversies regarding the use of the different imaging techniques are explained and discussed. The second part of the book then documents the application of these techniques to each of the clinical problems and diseases encountered in the shoulder. The authors are all experts in their field and include rising stars of musculoskeletal radiology. This well-illustrated book will assist the general and the musculoskeletal radiologist in planning, guiding and interpreting imaging studies. For the clinician it puts into perspective the role of the different imaging methods.

From the reviews: <p> This book is intended as a comprehensive review of focal anatomy and pathologic abnormalities of the shoulder. ... The text conveys a rather comprehensive review in a clear, succinct manner. ... This text does an excellent job of meeting the needs of various groups that differ in radiologic skill level. a ] I think this text would be particularly useful for clinicians in practice, radiologist in practice a ] and senior residents or fellows with a penchant for musculoskeletal radiology. (Eric A. Bogner, Radiology, April, 2005) <p> Imaging of the Shoulder is another in the series of musculoskeletal imaging topics published by Springer and, in common with the others, it is produced to a very high standard with generally excellent quality images throughout. The authorship comprises a selection of well-known British, European and North American musculoskeletal radiologists. a ] the book provides a sound overview of the shoulder imaging. (Dr A Saifuddin, RAD Magazine, September, 2004) <p> This is the 3rd volume of a series from AM Davies et al on musculoskeletal imaging aimed at specific anatomical areas. a ] the text is thorough, well referenced and readable. Each chapter is well organised with appropriate headings and subheadings and is illustrated with a range of good quality images. a ] Overall, this book provides an excellent synopsis of shoulder imaging and should provide a good reference text for musculoskeletal radiologists, rheumatologists and orthopaedic surgeons with an interest in the shoulder. (Dr Justin C Lee, Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine, Vol. 26 (2), 2004) <p> This book covers the whole spectrum of radiological diagnostic tools regardingshoulder pathology. a ] Each technique is reviewed in details, indications, specific interest and limits are addressed in great depth and with abundant references. a ] The authora (TM)s experience also enhances the quality of the descriptions.

(Alain G. Graftiaux, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, Vol. 15 (1), 2005) <p> As part of the series Medical Radiology, this book is another volume on musculoskeletal imaging.
