OSTI ID:5203656
The purpose of this book is to focus on the application of CT to the musculoskeletal system. Ten chapters deal with tumors, inflammation, trauma, and osteoporosis. There are specific chapters for the foot and ankle, the shoulder, and also for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and newer CT scanning capabilities. Five interesting case discussions are included. Each chapter provides an up-to-date reference list. Each chapter varies, which reflects the styles of the contributing authors, but each one is well written, concise, comprehensive, and illustrated with good quality and representative scans. This book covers a broad range of musculoskeletal topics.
