Description
A major revision of the successful first edition, "Atlas of Orthopedic Pathology", this text/atlas is the definitive reference work in the area of musculoskeletal pathology. More comprehensive and practical than ever before, it has been entirely updated, rewritten, and reorganized. Five new chapters and 363 new illustrations in the second edition keep you up-to-date on the latest advances and clinical applications in the field. At the same time, the second edition retains those features that made the book a masterpiece in the orthopaedic literature. Features include full-colour illustrations reflecting a variety of the latest imaging modalities - with line drawings used liberally to indicate specific features in a particular photography; comprehensive text and legends support the line drawings in clear, concise prose; extensive discussions of arthritis, metabolic bone disease, and rare entities all appear under one cover and a correlated slide atlas is available for lectures, study and seminars.
