From the book reviews:"The book is geared towards all specialities interested in musculoskeletal ultrasound, including orthopaedics surgeons, sports physicians, rheumatologists and of course radiologists. It would be just as useful to a novice as an experienced practitioner. . I found this book extremely useful with many little tips for improving my own skills. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who is enthusiastic about musculoskeletal ultrasound." (Shah Khan, British Journal of Hospital Medicine, Vol. 75 (6), June, 2014)"This book will serve as a terrific reading-room reference . to learn how to apply the cross-sectional modality of US to the musculoskeletal system. Best of all, it is fascinating, readable, and extremely well illustrated . . Each chapter is packed with pearls and is presented with clarity. . The same level of clarity, quality, readability, and comprehensiveness carries through every topic in every chapter. . It has the potential to beboth an invaluable tutorial and a constantly used resource for subspecialist musculoskeletal radiologists." (Michael A.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
