Riassunto

Still normal, or already pathologic? Every radiologist, surgeon, and orthopedic surgeon are confronted with this question on a daily basis, indeed it accompanies them for their professional life. For more than 90 years, "Koehler/Zimmer" has been the reference for differentiating borderline findings.Generations of physicians have considered this work indispensable in learning skeletal radiology, and have profited immensely from the unique selection of images.

This standard work in diagnostic radiology is now in it's 5th edition, and has been completely restructured and expanded to include:

- 4200+ images

- findings between normal and pathologic; in both pediatric and adult patients

- integration of appropriate CT and MR Imaging findings

- completely new didactic concept: structuring of all possible changes in five pathologic categories: dysplasia, trauma, necroses, inflammation, and tumor.

This work will greatly help the radiologist to increase his or her certainty and confidence in describing findings in skeletal radiology, and in arriving at appropriate diagnosis.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Is a radiological finding normal or pathologic? This borderline between the two states presents a daunting challenge to radiologists and orthopedic surgeons on a daily basis. Thieme proudly presents the updated and expanded fifth edition of the landmark text generations of physicians have used to differentiate borderline findings!

Redesigned for optimal use, the book is organized according to diagnostic questions raised by clinical findings, radiographic findings, or both. You'll find all possible variants in five pathologic categories: anomaly; trauma; necroses; inflammation; and tumor. The book provides imaging examples of the entire body, from the skull base, shoulder, and clavicle, to lower spine, knees, and the feet. More than 4,200 high-quality illustrations give clear examples of potential findings.

Key features of this historic text:

• Illustrated with more than 4,200 outstanding drawings, photographs, and radiographs--nearly 4 per page!
• Full coverage of pathologic conditions in their fully developed form,
• Exhaustive analysis of borderline findings for both pediatric and adult cases
• Valuable guidelines on integrating pathologic conditions with CT and MRI findings

This book is the encyclopedic resource that will expand your knowledge of findings in skeletal radiology and enhance your diagnostic skills. No personal or professional library is complete without this new standard-bearer in the field!

International acclaim for previous editions:

Excellent...the 'bible' of anomalies and variants...much worthwhile material...should be available to everyone interpreting skeletal radiographs... --Radiology

This text must hold a record for a continuously relevant, frequently updated radiological reference...all of the illustrations are state-of-the-art...an invaluable references. --The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery
