"Its focus is on providing an in-depth, referenced review of imaging in predominately the osteo- and rheumatoid variants of arthritis
with an emphasis placed on current and developing techniques. This it does very well. The text is well laid out and easy to read and supplemented by numerous images of good quality. The majority of
textbooks on this subject are more than five years old. Overall, this book represents a good, up-to-date summary of established and novel
techniques in the imaging of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis."
Dr. Asif Saiffudin, RAD Magazine, December 2009"The book is very well written. The authors have taken technical subject matter and discussed it in readable prose. Their discussions are thoughtful and thorough but not exhausting to read. The schematic
illustrations and radiographic images are superb throughout the text. Incorporating clinical advances in the management of arthritis, both
medical and surgical, gives the reader a better understanding of new paradigms in disease management......The reader is left with a new
appreciation for arthritis. This book would be most useful to radiology residents, musculoskeletal fellows, and practicing radiologists."
Stephen Sabourin, MD, Department of Radiology, Emory University Hospital, Atlanta, GA"I could do nothing but come to the conclusion that the author has a profound understanding of this imaging method.... The text throughout
the book is easy to follow, and is clinically oriented, which makes the book useful in clinical practice. The MRI techniques are particularly well described, and these methods may be relatively easily implemented
in everyday imaging. There are more than 600 images, which are of good or excellent quality.... This book did indeed fulfill my expectations. It is a welcome new publication, and is highly recommended reading for
every radiologist involved with arthritis imaging."
Acta Radiologica, 2009 Product Description Arthritis in Color helps you understand the recent advances in the use
of magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound for the diagnosis and
treatment of arthritis. Written by three authorities in the
field-Michael A. Bruno, MD; Gary E. Gold, MD; and Timothy J. Mosher,
MD-and including more than 600 images, 300 in full color, this book
gives you access to the current understanding and future directions in
this dynamic field. With coverage of everything from the basic to the
advanced, you'll have the guidance you need to make the most accurate
diagnoses.
- Provides correlation images that depict the disease
process on ultrasound, MRI, and plain radiographs to allow you to
confirm a diagnosis quickly and easily.
- Explores MRI and
ultrasound as more effective approaches to diagnosing rheumatoid
arthritis and osteoarthritis due to their superior evaluation of soft
tissues, marrow, and cartilage.
- Features more than 600 digital quality images-300 in full color-that clearly illustrate the material being presented.
- Includes examples of pathology with color illustrations to help you arrive at more accurate diagnoses.
- Covers both basic and advanced concepts for a well-rounded, well-balanced approach suitable for the novice or the expert.
- Presents
the expert guidance of Michael A. Bruno, Gary E. Gold, and Timothy J.
Mosher-instructors of the popular annual course at the American Roentgen
Ray Society on Advanced Imaging in Arthritis-for a consistent,
accessible style.
