Bone age assessment, a crucial part of the diagnosis and management of pediatric growth disorders as well as the timing of certain pediatric orthopedic procedures, has for decades depended on the meticulous examination of plain radiographs. Examining the subtle changes present within the maturing human hand often proves to be challenging and time-consuming. Building on the popular Greulich and Pyle atlas, this book modernizes the method for pediatric skeletal maturity determination. It offers a wealth of images, carefully mined from thousands of digital radiographs from University of Virginia's Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), edited to best demonstrate important developmen...
The wealth of images and user-friendly format of Skeletal Development of the Hand and Wrist enable a faster and more accurate approach to determining skeletal maturity.
The value of this atlas is to provide appropriate standards for the maturing skeleton {that} will enhance accuracy and ease interpretation -- From the Foreword by Theodore E. Keats, MD, Former Alumni Professor of Radiology, University of Virginia Health Sciences Center When dealing with the maturing skeleton and its many complex growth alterations, physicians are constantly faced with the question: Is this image normal? The Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Maturation succinctly answers that question by providing a comprehensive set of male and female reference images for every age and body part. This allows physicians to quickly hone in on normal ranges for the specific case they are reviewing...
MRI Atlas of Pediatric Brain Maturation and Anatomy provides rapid decision support during the interpretation of pediatric brain MRI when assessment of myelination and maturation present special challenges. Reference images are annotated to highlight key developmental features in the first three years of life for efficient, confident, reliable, and clinically valuable MRI interpretations.
Through 105 highly-illustrated chapters, Interventional and Endovascular Tips and Tricks of the Trade equips interventional radiologists, surgeons, and cardiologists with unique techniques for solving complex clinical problems that may arise during both vascular and non-vascular procedures. The techniques are presented as succinct steps with particular attention paid to applications, challenges, and potential pitfalls. The accessible outline format and illustrative case examples optimize learning, patient selection, and outcomes. Suggested further readings are included with each technique. The "outside-the-box" strategies presented in this volume are useful solutions to clinical challenges in the ever-evolving field of interventional medicine, with its innovative technology, devices, and procedures.
