Beschreibung
This is one of the first books to deal specifically with imaging in percutaneous musculoskeletal interventions, presenting and discussing the basic procedures and different guidance techniques. The authors describe in exhaustive detail the abilities and uses of imaging in guiding procedures ranging from biopsy and joint injection to management of pain and tumors. They then document the different indications for vascular interventions in musculoskeletal lesions. The final chapter focuses on ultrasound-guided interventions, as these are most common and tend to be fashionable. The book is well illustrated with carefully chosen and technically excellent images. Internationally respected experts authored each of the 21 chapters, making this book the most current and complete treatment of the subject available. It should be of great interest to interventional radiologists and also musculoskeletal and general radiologists.
