Atlas of Ultrasound Guided Musculoskeletal Injections (Musculoskeletal Medicine)
by David A. Spinner Jonathan S. Kirschner Joseph E. HerreraThe use of ultrasound guidance to perform diagnostic and therapeutic injections is growing at a rapid rate, as is the evidence to support its use. Even with the increased popularity of ultrasound, there remains a lack of formal training or a standard reference book. Atlas of Ultrasound Guided Musculoskeletal Injections fills this void in the literature and will be useful to physiatrists, orthopedists, rheumatologists, pain medicine and sports medicine specialists alike. Broken down by anatomic structure and heavily illustrated, this book is both comprehensive and instructive. The Editors and their contributors break down the basics (both the fundamentals of ultrasound to needle visibility and the role of injections) and explore ultrasound-guided injection for structures in the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand, hip and groin, knee, ankle and foot, and spine. Using a clear, heavily illustrated format, this book describes the relevant clinical scenarios and indications for injection, the evidence to support ultrasound use, relevant local anatomy, injection methods, and pearls and safety considerations. It will be a valuable reference for trainees and experienced clinicians alike, for experienced sonographers or those just starting out.

Atlas of Video Capsule Endoscopy
Wireless capsule endoscopy represents a revolutionary advance in noninvasive imaging of the digestive tract, particularly the small bowel. Well over 300,000 examinations have been performed in a relatively short time, testifying to the enormous unmet need to conquer the last bastion in digestive endoscopy. Capsule technology was developed to assist in the evaluation of diseases of the entire digestive tract, from the esophagus to the colon, but especially of the small bowel where it facilitates discovery of d- eases that are often not detectable with other modalities. Potential clinical indications and applications are constantly expanding. Currently, evaluation of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding is the foremost important indication for capsule endoscopy, occasionally followed by push enteroscopy or double-balloon endoscopy. The mean diagnostic value of capsule endoscopy for finding the cause of obscure bleeding is approximately 60%. The clinical utility of capsule endoscopy in the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease continues to evolve. Capsule endoscopy appears particularly useful in patients, including children, who have symptoms and signs suggestive of Crohn’s disease, when conventional diagnostic modalities remain negative. Other novel indications abound such as villous atrophy in celiac disease, lymphangiectasia, nodular lymphoid hyperplasia, drug-induced mucosal injury, radiation damage etc. Before introduction of the capsule, it was not r eadily possible to establish the extent of small bowel involvement in celiac disease. The strength of the capsule seems to lie in its ideal ability to diagnose, monitor, and assess complications in the latter disease.
Atlas of Virtual Colonoscopy
by Abraham H. H. Dachman and Andrea LaghiAtlas of Virtual Colonoscopy thoroughly revises and updates Abraham Dachman’s bestselling first edition. Joined in this edition by co-editor Andrea Laghi, Dr. Dachman has expanded the focus of the text to cover fundamental topics of this rapidly evolving technology, including the history of virtual colonoscopy, a review of clinical trial data from throughout the world, and a presentation of clinical background information. Also included are chapters covering patient preparation and tagging, performing and reporting virtual colonoscopy, viewing methods, MR colonography, and computer aided detection. The second part of the text presents an atlas of high-resolution images with detailed explanations of teaching points, covering normal anatomy; sessile, pedunculated, diminutive and flat lesions; masses; stool and diverticula; and common pitfalls. Atlas of Virtual Colonoscopy is a valuable resource for all radiologists and gastroenterologists interested in learning the fundamentals of this exciting technique.
Atlas of Virtual Colonoscopy
by Abraham H. DachmanIt is fitting that the first book to be published on the new subject of virtual colonoscopy takes the form of an atlas with an abundance of images. Radiolo gists approaching this exciting new technique for detecting colorectal neoplasms will rely on their traditional radiological knowledge gained from experience with several different tools, including computed tomography scanning, double contrast barium enema, computer image processing, and, of course, conventional colonoscopic findings. In many cases, the resulting blend of image information is entirely novel and radiologists will be faced with unfamiliar image artifacts as well as the problem of distinguishing stool from real lesions. This atlas will be of great value to those applying this new technique. In this volume, Abraham H. Dachman, MD, has persuaded most of the world's authorities pioneering virtual colonoscopy to contribute their cases as well as their insights. The material is effectively organized into a preliminary text sec tion of clinical and research issues followed by a well-illustrated, high-quality collection of case images. It is of interest to note that most of the 2D images re main in black-and-white format, whereas the 3D images are often presented in color largely because the 3D software applications are commercial products and therefore more creatively formatted to resemble the pink/orange tint of human colonic mucosa.
Atlas of Vulvovaginal Disease in Darker Skin Types
