Main description:

This long-awaited revision is Elsevier's premier one volume Musculoskeletal Radiology text. Based on the definitive five volume set, Diagnosis of Bone and Joint Disorders, Dr. Resnick has added Mark Kransdorf, a world- renowned soft tissue radiologist as co-editor. This concise synopsis of the field has been completely revised with new chapters on the hottest areas of Musculoskeletal imaging: digital imaging, spinal interventional techniques, cartilage imaging, and disorders of bone. Illustrations include the latest new MR imaging technologies. Perfect for board-review, recertification, and a comprehensive review of the field, this book is all you need to learn the best practices in Musculoskeletal radiology.

Provides 2,900 outstanding images that depict all important concepts, techniques, and findings.
Represents a highly efficient review source for oral and written radiology examinations, as well as an indispensable reference tool for clinical practice.

Covers hot topics such as spinal interventional procedures * cartilage imaging * disorders of muscle * diagnostic ultrasonography * internal derangement of joints * target-area approach to articular disorders * rheumatoid arthritis and related diseases * crystal-induced diseases * sports injuries * MR arthrography * and much more.
Offers an increased emphasis on MR imaging, an increasingly important and versatile diagnostic modality.
Presents many new illustrations not found in the Diagnosis of Bone and Joint Disorders, 4th Edition 5-volume set.
