Basics of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Book (italiano):
Musculoskeletal ultrasound has greatly changed the way many healthcare providers diagnose and treat patients. Almost everyone is familiar with the use of ultrasound technology in the field of obstetrics, but this modality is now being used with increasing frequency by physiatrists, orthopedists, sports medicine physicians, primary care doctors, and emergency physicians. Recently, advances in technology have made machines cheaper and easier to use while producing high quality images. The ability to produce real-time images at the bedside have prompted some to call it the "21st century stethoscope."Many healthcare providers from different fields and different diciplines (including physicians, physical therapists, PAs and NPs, athletic trainers, emergency medical technicians and nurses) at different levels of traning (practicing clinicians, teachers, students, residents and fellows) are seeking training and certification in this field. Basics of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound speaks to this audience by combining practical clinical aspects, from selecting the proper ultrasound machine to "knobology" and tissue scanning, to specific information organized by anatomical structure. By following this very easy step-by-step guide, the clinician can easily reference the patient's position, transducer position and the structure to be scanned, and all instructions correspond with recently published ultrasound guidelines.?
