Book excerpt: Increase your knowledge and improve your image interpretation skills using the proven and popular Case Review approach! This new edition contains 200 clinical cases with 800 radiographic images with multiple-choice questions, answers, and rationales – all organized by level of difficulty and designed to reinforce your understanding of the essential principles needed to interpret a wide range of musculoskeletal imaging modalities. Accessible, thorough, and concise, Musculoskeletal Imaging is an ideal self-assessment tool for both certification and maintenance of certification (MOC) exams. 200 unknown cases challenge your knowledge of a full range of topics in musculoskeletal imaging with questions, answers, diagnoses, and commentary. Emphasizes differential diagnosis to help you distinguish among diseases and disorders with similar imaging presentations. 100s of new and additional images—three-times more than the previous edition—complement the cases to provide you with key imaging findings and specific "pearls" to remember. Cases are divided into three levels of difficulty, "Opening Round," "Fair Game," and "Challenge," so you can test yourself and monitor your progress. All topics have been selected from the ABR Core Examination study guide. 800 multiple choice questions simulate questions in the Radiology Core and MOC Examinations. Each figure is labeled and annotated with a legend that discusses the imaging findings. Cases are enhanced with additional images that emphasize other important features of the disease or condition discussed. Covers the latest hot topics in musculoskeletal imaging including: compressive neuropathy, emergent musculoskeletal conditions, and secondary signs of ligamentous injury as well as metabolic diseases such as atypical femur fracture from chronic bisphosphonate use. Updated and expanded coverage of the latest high-tech imaging procedures and modalities to help you stay abreast of recent advances and trends in musculoskeletal imaging.
