Riassunto

Skeletal Trauma: A Mechanism-Based Approach of Imaging combines the knowledge of both surgeons and radiologists to propose a mechanism-based approach to imaging in skeletal trauma. This book uses over 30 original schemas, details common radiological views and how they’re performed, and invites the reader to investigate imaging features to determine the encountered mechanism of injury. The key to being confident in the evaluation of skeletal trauma imaging is to rely on the identification of injuring patterns.

• Presents a comprehensive review of skeletal injuries using a mechanisms-based approach
• Reviews relevant general and radiologic anatomy
• Assists reader in understanding why and where injuries occur and how they present on imaging

Dalla quarta di copertina

A key to being confident in the evaluation of skeletal trauma imaging is to rely on the identification of mechanism-specific traumatic features. Indeed, for each mechanism of injury applied to a particular part of the skeleton, the latter can only present predefined traumatic injuries: this is a pattern of injuries.

The recognition of such a pattern of imaging allows the reader to determine the injuring mechanism and look for damages of lesser expression (or even invisible damages) that are common to the identified mechanism. In becoming more familiar with those mechanisms, the readers can deal with trauma imaging more efficiently and directly focus on findings relevant for further management.

Skeletal Trauma: A Mechanism-Based Approach of Imaging aims to combine the knowledge of both radiologists and surgeons to propose a mechanism-based approach to imaging in skeletal trauma. Along 15 chapters covering every part of the skeleton, with more than 900 figures, this book reviews the anatomy, standard radiologic views, and imaging findings of skeletal trauma. Over 200 original schemas invite the reader to understand the imaging features and determine the injuring mechanism.
