This book is the next best thing to a mentor in learning how to understand the technique and interpretation of MR imaging of the lower extremities. Features of this book include: -A double-page concept, with schemes and illustrations on the right, and explanatory text on the left -A total of more than 1,000 MR images and illustrations providing a comprehensive visual overview of the normal and pathologic musculoskeletal tissues of the lower extremities -Practice cases are included to test what one has learned from the book When you have worked through this book you will understand why certain exams are performed; why certain protocols are used; what you actually see; what is normal, artifact or pathologic; which clinical context is involved; and what your reactions should be. This is a marvelous introduction to MR imaging of the lower extremities, and is particularly valuable for the way it integrates imaging findings with the clinical context.
