Description
Springer Fracture Sonography A Comprehensive Clinical Guide 2021 Edition by Ole Ackermann
Filling
a gap in the literature, this is the first book to comprehensively present
fracture sonography as a diagnostic tool that can complement and in some cases
even replace conventional radiological imaging.
Guiding readers step by step through a patient
examination, it is an invaluable guide to implementing this technique in
clinical practice. It also presents algorithms, tips, tricks and pitfalls
shared by experienced authors, making it a useful reference resource for all
those practicing in the field.
This book is of interest to a wide readership,
including orthopedic, pediatric and trauma surgeons, emergency physicians,
pediatric radiologists and general practitioners.
