From the Publisher:
This book presents a case-by-case approach
to bone trauma seen on plain fim and will help you learn some of the
most common and important cases. You will review relevant clinical
information and radiographs before answering a set of questions
regarding the findings, enabling you to test your clinical knowledge and
skills, and identify any weak areas of knowledge. The subsequent
answers are presented clearly and thoroughly, and explained with simple
illustrations and x-rays. This is followed by a section on
management which covers specific details to each case.
This book is ideally suited for those
junior practitioners who deal with musculoskeletal trauma on a daily
basis, such as those in the fields of emergency medicine, radiology, and
orthopedic surgery. However, regardless, if you have an interest
in musculoskeletal injuries, and would like to expand your knowledge on
the basic interpretation and management of fractures, this book is a
good start to that process, and will make you realize that it is less
daunting than once thought.
