Hip Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Beschreibung

Hip Magnetic Resonance Imaging presents a basic yet comprehensive discussion of the role and use of MRI in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries and diseases of the hip, highlighting common concerns and procedures. Beginning with the principles of MRI and dGEMRIC and moving on to normal and abnormal hip anatomy, the focus shifts to the MRI techniques used in the detection of disease conditions of the hip, including labral disease, osteonecrosis, extra-articular conditions and cartilage damage. Chapters on the utilization of biochemical imaging biomarkers in the treatment of hip disorders round out the text. Written by experts in radiology and orthopedics and generously illustrated with MRI radiographs, this book will be an important reference work for clinicians in those fields, as well as practitioners of sports medicine and primary care physicians.

Rezensionen

From the book reviews:

"It is actually a brief summary of topics devoted to hip abnormalities and imaging, with the overriding theme of cartilage imaging. ... the text is appropriate for radiologists, researchers, and our colleagues in orthopedic surgery and sports medicine. ... This text is a good, brief summary of the current concepts of hip abnormalities and imaging. Professionals who may benefit from this book include those wishing to implement modern imaging techniques into their practice." (Gregg W. Bean, Radiology, Vol. 274 (1), January, 2015)
