Download or read book Joint Imaging in Childhood and Adolescence written by Sergio Lopes Viana and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, now in its second edition, remains one of very few works devoted to pediatric musculoskeletal imaging since the advent of cross-sectional methods, and the only one – to the best of our knowledge – specifically dedicated to the skeletally immature joint and its diseases. There has been a steady decline in the number of pediatric radiologists, and less emphasis has been given to pediatric training for general radiologists, so that the latter are more and more unfamiliar with normal and abnormal imaging findings in children and adolescents. This can lead to the misinterpretation of normal findings and failure to recognize abnormal exam results. Even though this book is intended primarily for radiologists, it will also greatly benefit general rheumatologists, pediatric rheumatologists, pediatricians, orthopedic surgeons and all those involved in the diagnosis and treatment of children and adolescents with articular complaints. It employs simple and accessible language, so that it provides the in-depth information required by radiologists, while still being understandable for non-radiologists. Although its structure is fluent and logical, the chapters are all self-contained. Richly illustrated, its imagery combines the pictorial strength of old radiographs, which display late-stage abnormalities rarely seen today, and the appeal of modern imaging and its ability to detect early signs and subtle findings. Key points are summarized at the end of each chapter. By presenting essential information on imaging of the immature joint, the authors hope to provide a useful tool to help radiologists (musculoskeletal specialists and generalists alike) face the daily challenges of interpreting pediatric exams. Soon, artificial intelligence (AI) will be able to perform the most basic radiological diagnoses. Nevertheless, pediatric musculoskeletal radiology is complex and full of facets, and mastering this area in this ever-changing time can be a very important differential in the career of the 21st century radiologist.

Download or read book Self assessment in Paediatric Musculoskeletal Trauma X rays written by Karen Sakthivel-Wainford and published by M&K Update Ltd. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This helpful book, written specifically for radiographers, nurse practitioners and radiographer practitioners, can be used as a revision aid or study guide or to help prepare for an assessment. The first chapter, on non-accidental injury (NAI), is written from three different perspectives: that of a nurse practitioner with an interest in paediatrics; a social worker specialising in children; and a paediatric team leader radiographer, who discusses the skeletal survey. This is followed by a brief description of different types of paediatric fractures, with examples. The next chapter looks at the pathway for the limping child, followed by a series of paediatric trauma cases, on which the reader is asked to write reports. Karen Sakthivel-Wainford has concentrated on the areas of paediatric trauma that are most commonly presented to an emergency department or minor injuries unit. This edition includes 125 cases in total, with 25 new cases focusing on areas (such as the elbow) that practitioners find difficult to interpret. Contents include: • Introduction • Non-accidental injury • Introduction to paediatric fractures • Overview of the limping child • Wrist and hand trauma • Elbow and forearm trauma • Shoulder trauma • Ankle and foot trauma • Knee and tibia/fibula trauma • Pelvis and hip trauma • Spine, skull and facial trauma • A selection of cases

Download or read book Evidence Based Emergency Imaging written by Aine Kelly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents evidence-based criteria to systematically assess the appropriate use of medical imaging in the emergency department and other acute care settings. Over the last decade, there have been profound changes in the diagnostic testing and work-up of patients presenting to the emergency department with emergent symptoms. One of the most far-reaching changes has been the increased availability, speed, and accuracy of imaging due, in part, to technical improvements in imaging modalities such as CT, MR, and PET. Although the use of high-end imaging has plateaued in general, increased utilization continues in the ED. These patients are more acutely ill and there is additional pressure to make an accurate diagnosis as quickly as possible to facilitate prompt disposition or treatment. There is also strong evidence for the beneficial use of imaging in the emergency setting that results in improved patient outcomes. This book answers that need by providing protocols and guidelines for neuroradiological, cardiothoracic, abdominal and pelvic, musculoskeletal, and pediatric imaging are reviewed in terms of the available imaging modalities, diagnostic criteria, and treatment options. Distinguished by its unique focus on evidence-based emergency imaging in adults, children, and special populations, this book is a unique resource for radiologists, emergency medicine physicians, and physicians in other specialties who need to be informed about the most appropriate uses of diagnostic imaging in the emergency care setting.
