A practical reference on nuclear imaging in sports medicine with an anatomical approach, this book is structured and presented to be a practical, quick reference for physicians to use when treating sports injuries.

The latest addition to the popular Teaching Atlas series, Teaching Atlas of Musculoskeletal Imagingprovides a complete overview of the most common manifestations of musculoskeletal disorders as well as the most important rare diseases. Internationally recognized authors guide the reader through multi-modality imaging approaches for 130 problems, which are grouped according to broad categories, including internal joint derangement, tumors, infection, avascular bone, trauma, arthritis, and prostheses. Each case provides concise descriptions of the presenting signs, radiologic findings, diagnosis, and differential diagnosis. Up-to-date information on musculoskeletal pathology and the current management strategies, including the latest interventional radiology techniques, make this atlas an outstanding reference for daily practice.Highlights:-Essential information on the use of radiography, ultrasound, CT, and MRI enables clinicians to select the best combination of multiple imaging modalities for each case-Bullet-point lists of Pearls and Pitfalls guide readers through diagnosis and help them avoid errors in image interpretation-900 images demonstrate key aspects of common and rare disease manifestations, providing an invaluable cross-reference tool for clinicians managing live casesIdeal for rapid reference and review, this atlas is an invaluable resource for clinicians and residents in radiology, orthopedics, interventional musculoskeletal radiology, as well as those in musculoskeletal pathology, rheumatology, and sports medicine.

In Atlas of Nuclear Cardiology, Doctors Dilsizian and Narula have worked together with over a dozen leading authorities to capture the most up-to-date and pertinent information in the field of nuclear cardiology. This atlas is a modern and complete visual library of up-to-date information on the most current cardiovascular nuclear procedures in the clinical practice of cardiology. Together with detailed legends and extensive reference listings, the over 600 illustrations deliver comprehensive information. Diagnostic algorithms and schematic diagrams integrated with nuclear cardiology procedures are generously interspersed with color images to emphasize key concepts in cardiovascular physiology and metabolism. This vital reference provides a detailed and accurate insight into the noninvasive evaluation and quantification of myocardial perfusion, function, and metabolism.

Displaying world-class images, Atlas of Imaging in Sports Medicine 2e is the essential reference text for accurate diagnosis and imaging in sports medicine today. Features of this edition: • more than 2200 images and illustrations • all forms of radiographic imagery — including plain films, nuclear medicine, CT, ultrasound, MRI and fluoroscopy • a new chapter on intervention — in recognition of the changing and expanding role of radiologists, with ethical considerations and guidance for procedures • relevance to medical subspecialty disciplines, such as paediatrics, military and occupational medicine, athletes with disabilities, elite sports and performing arts. Unique in its breadth and depth, Atlas of Imaging in Sports Medicine 2e is authored by pioneers in the field, Dr Jock Anderson and Dr John Read, in collaboration with colleagues.

Nuclear medicine imaging in the musculoskeletal system with its ability to assess disease activities has contributed to accurate diagnosis and improved medical and surgical treatment. Several nuclear medicine textbooks and case studies in forms of atlases have been published so far, but there seems to be no in-depth nuclear medicine imaging atlas focused on diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Therefore, the authors have written about common cases as well as rare musculoskeletal disorders for which various imaging techniques of nuclear medicine (bone scan, SPECT, SPECT/CT, PET/CT, PET/MR, etc.) are useful based on their clinical experience in many different hospitals. This book intends to share the experiences of the authors with nuclear medicine and radiology residents and board specialists, and to help other clinicians who manage musculoskeletal disorders, such as orthopedic and rheumatology, through various cases of musculoskeletal disorders by providing algorithmic imaging utilization to support their patient care.
