2. udgave. The value of MR imaging for the evaluation of musculoskeletal system disorders cannot be over-stated. It is the only imaging modality that enables visualization of all components of the joints within single examinations. Yet, given the bewildering variety of possible sequence parameters, with and without contrast medium, acquiring and interpreting MR images with confidence is a challenge, requiring experience usually only gained after examining 1000s of studies with a careful systematic approach. Like the First Edition, the Second Edition of MRI of the Musculoskeletal System assists the radiologist in acquiring the most reliable and complete imaging information, so as to achieve a high degree of diagnostic certainty quickly and efficiently. Key Features: More than 2000 MR images of reference quality, the majority new for this edition Drawings, where helpful, aid the reader in identifying and delineating normal and pathological entities Includes all the latest advanced techniques: MR neurography and myelography, diffusion imaging, quantitative MRI, mDIXON, and more All MR exams described fully, with choice of sequence, positioning, choice of coils, when/how to use contrast, protocols Discussions of possible errors in interpretation Comparison of MR imaging with other modalities Tables expand and organize information on sequence parameters and differential diagnoses More than just an authoritative reference, Vahlensieck's MRI of the Musculoskeletal System is the ideal practical helper to accompany the radiologist at the workstation on a daily basis.

1st edition 2017. The gliding nature and dynamic planes of the face present one of the great challenges in aesthetic surgery and volume replenishment is a key component of the treatment algorithm. Facial Volumization: An Anatomic Approach by Jerome Lamb and Christopher Surek masterfully bridges the gap between the anatomy lab and injection clinic. It synthesizes a large body of facial anatomy publications into a "one-stop shop" covering a wide array of facial procedures - from the chin and perioral - to the midface and temple. In addition to vascular injury, lymphatic disruption can play a critical role in suboptimal aesthetic facial volumization outcomes.

Comprehensive Cleft Care provides unparalleled coverage of cleft care-from prenatal diagnosis to definitive orthognathic surgery. The inclusion of topics such as advocacy, mission work, and outcomes assessment make this an all-in-one clinical companion. The work is conveniently divided into two volumes. The first addresses nonsurgical topics, including clinical outcomes research, evidence-based practice, fundamentals of team care, and the global aspects of cleft care. The first volume also discusses fundamental subjects in cleft science, such as embryology, anatomy, classification, epidemiology, and genetics. Clinical topics addressed in the first volume include nursing and primary care, feeding and swallowing, and pediatric assessment and management of children with clefting. Neuropsychological and educational topics, including psychosocial and behavioral aspects and the role of the social worker in cleft care are also discussed. The contributors examine cleft palate speech and velopharyngeal dysfunction and review otologic, audiologic, and airway assessment and management, including issues related to sleep-disordered breathing. The second volume addresses surgical solutions, as well as the dental and orthodontic aspects of cleft management. It examines primary cleft lip and palate repair, including methods for the repair of microform, unilateral, and bilateral clefts. Also discussed is secondary surgical management of cleft lip and palate, dental, orthodontic, and prosthetic management, and the management of skeletal deformities. This complete two-volume reference uses a distinct holistic approach and perspectives from skilled specialists in a variety of disciplines, presenting an unmatched overview of cleft repair and management. It includes two DVDs covering topics ranging from nursing care, anatomy, and embryology to detailed operative videos of all key surgical procedures.
