Moreover, this handbook will help you show patients why treatment is needed and how your specific treatment plan will help them recuperate. Imaging Handbook for Physical Therapists begins with a general introduction to imaging. Next, seven chapters explore the anatomical regions of concern to physical therapists, including cervical spine; shoulder; elbow, wrist, and hand; thoraco-lumbar spine; hip; knee; and ankle. These chapters address: radiographic examination and normal anatomy; Congenital defects; Degenerative diseases; Nondegenerative diseases; Metabolic diseases; Post-traumatic and post-operative changes. Throughout the handbook, you'll find many radiographic, CT, and MRI images of the musculoskeletal system, enabling you to compare normal anatomy to anatomical changes caused by diseases and injuries that often prompt a referral to physical therapy. A glossary at the end of the handbook defines key terms used in medical imaging. -- from back cover.

Book excerpt: Imaging diagnostics is now becoming an important and indispensable element of qualifications for physiotherapy and planning the process of physiotherapy and rehabilitation. It is a valuable complement to, and sometimes the basis for, tests or designation of various goals of physiotherapy. It is also the basis of any knowledge about the skilful and reliable use of selected methods of physiotherapy. This volume addresses the need of the moment regarding the lack of comprehensive studies across the globe concerning the use of imaging diagnostics in the physiotherapy process. It will not only contribute to a more complete functional assessment of the patient in comprehensive physiotherapy processes, but will also be the basis for the emergence of a diagnostic standard in the treatment of the patient. This is all the more important because the ever-increasing independence of the physiotherapist’s profession is burdened with huge, progressive responsibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choose the right imaging for your patients. Rely on this compendium of evidence-based criteria to confidently select the most appropriate imaging modality for the diagnostic investigation of the most commonly evaluated musculoskeletal conditions. The Musculoskeletal Imaging Handbook simplifies the complex field of musculoskeletal imaging for the primary practitioner responsible for ordering imaging or for the clinician who wants to understand the role of imaging in their patient’s care. Information on Radiographs, MRIs, CTs, and Diagnostic Ultrasound is condensed into easily understood bullet points, decision pathways, tables, and charts. The most valuable feature of this Handbook is the ability to see the entire spectrum of imaging available, and understand why one imaging modality is most appropriate at a given point in the diagnostic investigation. This Handbook includes all the evidence–based criteria currently available to guide a primary practitioner in the selection of the most appropriate imaging investigation for a given clinical condition: the American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria for Musculoskeletal Conditions, Western Australia’s Diagnostic Imaging Pathways for Musculoskeletal Conditions, and the Ottawa, Pittsburgh, and Canadian Clinical Decision Rules for ankle, knee, and cervical spine trauma. It’s the perfect companion to Lynn N. McKinnis’ Fundamentals of Musculoskeletal Imaging, 4th Edition.
