PrefazioneQuesto testo nasce dalla esperienza consolidata negli anni degli autori nello studio della patologia articolare della spalla, che parte dallo studio radiologico convenzionale per approdare alle metodiche di imaging più sofisticate precisando le modalità di impiego e le indicazioni della ecografia, della TC, della RM e della artro-RM.Si è cercato di descrivere in maniera sintetica ma quanto più completa possibile i differenti quadri patologici inerenti alle differenti metodiche, dividendoli nei due grandi capitoli della patologia muscolo-tendinea, sia da impingement che post-traumatica, e da instabilità, che spesso sono tuttavia correlate fra di loro ed interdipendenti.Il testo è corredato di un’ampia iconografia esplicativa e speriamo quanto più possibile chiara e facilmente fruibile, pur nella complessità anatomica e funzionale di una articolazione come la spalla.Si è ritenuto inoltre opportuno dedicare dei capitoli a parte alla studio ecografico, alla patologia legata alla rigidità di spalla da capsulite adesiva ed allo studio post-operatorio della spalla, richiedendo quest’ultimo una adeguata conoscenza delle differenti tecniche chirurgiche, e del loro riscontro in termini di imaging.Vorremmo ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno contribuito alla realizzazione di questo testo, frutto della collaborazione di un gruppo radiologico che da sempre ha collaborato in maniera sinergica allo sviluppo delle conoscenze nell’ambito della radiologia muscolo-scheletrica.Buona lettura.

For many healthcare professionals, musculoskeletal diseases represent the "bread and butter" topic after graduation. Therefore, radiological education in respect of the musculoskeletal system is vital in ensuring adequate patient management and cost-effective use of healthcare financial resources. This book illustrates the clinical anatomy of the musculoskeletal system by means of images obtained using commercially available imaging equipment and the three main imaging techniques employed today - magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and ultrasound. Based on an integrated multimodality approach, each anatomical region is presented with a special focus on clinically relevant anatomical details and the characteristic findings observed in patients referred by physicians. With almost 450 images and illustrations, A Radiologically Guided Approach to Musculoskeletal Anatomy is intended as a bridge from a standard anatomical atlas to diagnostic imaging. It will assist in the everyday interpretation of imaging studies of the musculoskeletal system, providing prompt answers to frequently encountered questions. Clinical notes and self-assessment modules are also provided. All who wish to learn more about the role of diagnostic imaging of the musculoskeletal system will find this book to be of great value. It will benefit not only medical students and residents but also radiology technologists and professionals in other fields of health care, including orthopaedists, rheumatologists, and rehabilitation specialists.

Volume formato 14 x 21 pages 144, full color with many illustrations and tablesWe have developed a standardized technique for ultrasound guided intra-articular injection of the hip joint with the view to extending routine intra-articular injection of hyaluronans and steroids to the hip, as commonly used in the knee.Our experience has shown that in expert hands, US guidance for intra-articular injections is a technique that is simple to carry out, effective, safe and well tolerated.It can be repeated in the same patient without significant changes in the tolerability and safety and without risks of repeated exposure to radiation for the patient and the operator.The clinical and scientific data obtained with our technique demonstrate that ultrasound guided therapy of the hip can reduce symptoms and probably slow down structural osteoarthritic damage by decreasing inflammatory flares, furthermore it might reduce both the assistance costs and costs related to total hip replacement.This book describes the technique of ultrasound-guided injection of the hip, clinical reports and scientific results, and deals with the future prospects of intra-articular therapy.We hope that this book can be, as well as a complete treatise of the state of the art of ultrasound guided intra-articular injections of the hip, also an incentive for specialists who want to start performing this therapeutic technique.
