Publisher's Synopsis
This revised text discusses general principles of skeletal radiology which are applicable regardless of imaging modality. The author of this text adopts a conceptual approach focusing on musculo-skeletal diseases and conditions rather than on specific imaging modalities. Modern radiology reveals the specific anatomic and pathophysiologic effects of disease, but this book aims to show radiologists how the radiologic findings mirror the underlying conditions. The book offers a section on post-surgical imaging.
