This extensively illustrated atlas focuses on high-resolution industrial radiographs of the hand and wrist used in the diagnosis of pathologic conditions, which requires the detection of minute changes. It is structured such that the reader can identify the radiographic skeletal changes and relate them to specific disease entities. The aim is to provide an essential, practical guideline for the recognition of the key radiographic signs in diagnosing various systemic as well as localized diseases that manifest themselves in the hand and wrist. The book is intended for radiologists, rheumatologists, hand surgeons, orthopedists, traumatologists, internists and their residents in training.
