Color Atlas of Clinical Orthopaedics

This edition is divided into two sections - the first covers generalized disorders, including bone dysplasias, malformation syndromes, joint and soft-tissue disorders, metabolic endocrine disease, neurological disorders in orthopaedics, and tumours in soft tissue, bone and cartilage. The second section covers each body region in turn, starting with the spine, shoudler, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, through to the ankle and foot. Both sections are cross-referenced and include highlighted tables of information to aid diagnosis. This second edition has been reorganized, with many clinical photographs, including imaging techniques such as MRI, CT and isotape scans, as well as a great deal more explanatory text, including patient histories, signs and symptoms, and discussion of the examination and investigation. The aim is to provide a visual reference source to aid in the diagnosis of all common clinical orthopaedic disorders.
