Infos

This book provides a comprehensive clinical review ofdiagnostic and interventional applications of musculoskeletal ultrasound at thepoint-of-care. As more rheumatologists and other musculoskeletal providers intraining and in practice learn the skill of musculoskeletal ultrasound, anincreasing number of them will seek study materials for exam preparation andpractical knowledge that apply to their clinical practice. Each chapter coversa standardized protocol of joint images with probe placement, and includesnumerous examples of common ultrasound pathologies, clearly addressing whatkind of pathology to look for with specific ultrasound image views. Reviewtopics are emphasized, and study tools such as key-concept overviews, lists ofimportant studies in the field, and extensive questions for self-assessment areincluded throughout. Because ultrasound training is moving toward becoming amandatory part of rheumatology fellowship and has become mandatory in physicalmedicine and rehabilitation residencies, this book is a valuable educationalresource for rheumatologists, physiatrists, and musculoskeletal providersseeking a practical review guide for preparation of certification exams and usein clinical practice.
