Publisher's Synopsis
Written for radiologists, orthopaedists and team physicians, this anatomically organized text/atlas illustrates the use of high-tech modalities in the diagnostic work-up of athletic injuries. Focusing mainly on CT, MRI, and nuclear medicine, it compares the relative strengths, weaknesses, and costs of each modality. As a special feature, the book also offers a sports orthopaedist's perspective on which tests to order for a given injury and what type of abnormal findings to expect.
