Overview

The International Diagnostic Course in Davos (IDKD) offers a unique learning experience for imaging specialists in training as well as for experienced radiolo- gists and clinicians seeking state of the art knowledge and an update regarding the latest developments in the field of musculoskeletal imaging. This syllabus is designed to provide IDKD course participants with the neces- sary background material so that they can fully concentrate on the workshops. However, this text is also a comprehensive overview of current musculoskeletal imaging. While it is aimed at general radiologists, radiology residents, rheuma- tologists, and orthopedic surgeons, it is also ofrelevance to clinicians in other spe- cialties who wish to update their knowledge in this discipline. The authors are internationally renowned experts in their fields. The chapters are disease-oriented and cover all the major imaging modalities, including mag- netic resonance imaging, standard radiography, computed tomography, and ultra- sound.
