Ultrasound and clinically guided Injection techniques on the musculoskeletal system
Targeted therapeutic injections of joints, periarticular structures, tendon sheaths or bursae are among the most important treatments for inflammatory rheumatic or inflammatory activated degenerative diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, injections of periarticular structures are also performed in post-traumatic situations or in overuse syndromes. In this publication, we discuss indications, contraindications, the clinical and ultrasound-guided techniques preferred by the authors, and possible adverse drug reactions and side effects of intraarticular and periarticular injection.
New insights into the role of imaging in large vessel vasculitis
Due to the heterogeneity of clinical manifestations, the diagnosis, monitoring, and risk stratification of large vessel vasculitis (LVV) can pose a challenge. As a result of technological progress in recent decades, a variety of non-invasive imaging modalities now play a crucial role in managing LVV. Ultrasound (US), 18-FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and CT have proven useful in managing giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TAK). The aim of this Research Topic is to compile a collection of articles that provide new insights and potential applications of imaging, especially but not limited to US, FDG-PET/CT, MRI, and CT, in the management of GCA, TAK, and isolated aortitis. The collection aims to cover various aspects, such as diagnosis, disease monitoring, defining remission, and risk stratification.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis
Part of the Oxford Rheumatology Library series, Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis provides quick and practically relevant information on several aspects of the diseases, particularly on diagnosis and management, with the ultimate aim of improving the patient's care.
A Clinician's Pearls & Myths in Rheumatology
This book builds upon the first edition with new and improved chapters. The book explores the rich assemblage of clinical wisdom from expert rheumatologists from a wide range of specialties including Vasculitis and Sjogren’s syndrome. It examines the nuggets or ‘pearls’ of wisdom gained from collective clinical experience about the diagnosis or treatment of various diseases whilst also aiming to debunk myths that have influenced the practice of rheumatology by many clinicians. The second edition of A Clinician's Pearls and Myths in Rheumatology is a critical resource for both practitioners and students of rheumatology. This book provides a clear guide for those wishing to take a “deep dive” into the diagnostic and therapeutic elements of rheumatology.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis
Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA) are related conditions occurring almost exclusively in older people. Polymyalgia rheumatica is considered to be the rheumatic disease that is subject to the widest variations of clinical practice, partially due to the considerable uncertainty related to diagnosis and outcomes. Giant cell arteritis, an inflammatory form of vasculitis, may present with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations and can be complicated by acute ischemic events, the most serious of which is permanent blindness. Early recognition and adequate treatment of the condition is thus necessary to prevent patients' loss of independence and to maintain their qual...

Defy Aging
Shows why and how the body deteriorates as life goes on and offers an easy-read overview of new solutions coming out of current studies of aging. Wrinkles and gray hairs and misplaced keys—the obvious signs of getting older. Surprisingly, all of the miniscule events in our cells and organs that are responsible for aging begin their deterioration in our third decade. This book explains what is going on inside cells and organs that result in the outward appearances of aging. Readers will discover what causes skin to sag, hair to turn gray, blood vessels to stiffen, and other, mostly unwelcome events. Finally, and probably most importantly, the reader will be introduced to what can be done to...
