Publisher's Synopsis
As well as being a practical guideline for newcomers to sonography of the infant hip, this book can just as usefully be consulted by more experienced radiologists, orthopaedic surgeons and physicians. The authors discuss difficulties in diagnosis and show how to avoid typical mistakes. Special attention is paid to treatment and to the use of ultrasound to control therapy. Figures of numerous sonographic and X-ray examinations, along with several line drawings, illustrate the text.
