The Teaching Files: Musculoskeletal: expert consult uses a case-based, visual approach to easier diagnosis. The book is intended for the working general radiologist and musculoskeletal radiologist in fellowship training, although radiology residents may also find it useful.
Practical and clinically focused, this musculoskeletal title in the new Teaching Files series provides 400 interesting cases and over 700 high-quality images to help you better diagnose any musculoskeletal disease or disorder. The book organization is intended to make referencing of difficult diagnoses easy. Every chapter consistently includes Demographics/Clinical History, Findings, Discussion, Characteristic/Features, Radiologic Findings, Differential Diagnosis, and Suggested Readings to make reference to the work optimal. Detailed up-to-date discussions of current musculoskeletal concepts and technologies are provided. Expert Consult comes with convenient access to the full text online, all of the book's illustrations, and links to Medline at expertconsult.com
Special thanks to James Thrall, MD, who in my opinion has built the greatest radiology department in the world at Massachusetts General Hospital, and to Theresa McLoud, MD, for her educational mentorship. Thank you to Daniel Rosenthal, MD, Susan Kattapuram, MD, and William Palmer, MD, all my colleagues in the musculoskeletal division of Massachusetts General Hospital, and our fellows and residents for teaching me almost everything I know about musculoskeletal disease.
