What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Musculoskeletal Radiology

This book is an introduction to musculoskeletal radiology, specifically  designed for the needs of first-year residents. On the first rotation in  musculoskeletal imaging, radiology residents are asked to learn  significant amounts of information at a fast and unrelenting pace.  However, most current books are densely written and contain far more  material than residents need to know. Moreover, the number, variety and  quality of images is often limited.

What Radiology Residents Need  to Know: Musculoskeletal Radiology answers these needs by presenting  the important information in bullet fashion, divided into convenient  sub-units, such as “clinical information,” “imaging findings,” and  “management.” In most cases, an individual pathological condition can be  presented in one page or less. In addition, it contains tips on  approaching and interpreting radiographs, MRI and CT based on decades of  practical experience and teaching residents at the work station.

With  liberal use of illustrations in the text and an online bank of many  more high-quality images, this book gives readers a comprehensive  library of musculoskeletal imaging scans and serves as an ideal guide  for radiology residents.
