Book description
In many cases, MRI is the last and decisive step in diagnostic imaging
of the musculoskeletal system. The knowledge necessary to understand
normal anatomy and pathological findings has increased exponentially in
recent years. In 850 images, with many MR-images supported by
explanatory color graphs, this book addresses this issue and the main
problems the examining physician encounters, including - the description
of all relevant techniques of MRI- suggestions for tabular protocols-
the comprehensive presentation of normal sectional anatomy, - tables for
differential diagnosis, and - description of state-of-the-art imaging
methods. "This MRI book with its excellent images and schematic
