This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease. SLE affects many parts of the body, with joint pain in the knees and hands being commonly reported symptoms. Arthritis is, therefore, one of the most common symptoms of the disease. This book comprehensively summarizes information about SLE for medical professionals and students. The volume illustrates the process of making accurate diagnoses through systematic interpretation of ABCDEGFGI parameters: A (Alignment): malalignment and deformation; B (Bone): bone changes; C (Capsular lesions): cartilage and intra-articular lesions; D (Distribution): four dimensional distributions; E (Extra-bone): extra-articular soft tissue; F (Further information): further additional medical information; G (Goal): general analysis and integrated comprehensive diagnosis; H (Heal and Heath): treatment and prognosis; and I (Immunological analysis): immunological interpretations. Key Features: - Presents information about the clinical features of SLE and differential diagnosis through 11 chapters - Covers both rheumatic symptoms and systemic symptoms - Provides a comprehensive approach to SLE diagnosis and management which blends both rheumatology and radiology - Explains the ABCDEFGI system for diagnosing and treating SLE patients - Includes more than 750 detailed figures illustrating important information - Includes references for further reading The book is an informative resource for a wide range of scholarly and professional readers who may encounter SLE patients in clinical settings: rheumatologists, orthopedists, radiologists, physiatrists, immunologists, pediatricians, general physicians, medical technicians, caregivers and specialists in internal medicine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a quick aid for any clinician dealing with patients with rheumatic diseases. The major gap that we tried to fill by writing this book is the clinical relevance to practice! It is hardly ever seen that a resident in rheumatology is carrying any book about rheumatology in his/her rotation! Obviously, because there are no good books with relevance to the daily practice a resident is facing! Now, here are the specific objectives of the book. The chapters might be fulfilling more than one of these general objectives: To construct a clinical approach to patients with arthritis. To interpret laboratory findings in patients with rheumatic diseases. To prescribe and monitor drugs used to treat patients with rheumatic diseases. To construct a diagnostic approach to common medical problems in patients with rheumatic diseases. To provide an update in the classification and management of common rheumatic diseases based on international societies. The features and content in the book that will be most valuable: The first part which represent the basics in rheumatology practice. There will be a comprehensive chapter about how to approach history taking from patients presenting with a rheumatological problem. There will be also a simplified approach to MSK examination of common joints from a rheumatological perspective with the intention to diagnose arthritis and not to be mixed with sports injuries or other soft tissue problems. In the last section of the book, we will bring the latest classification criteria and the latest recommendation for management guidelines (they are so many!) in one section! We are not considering our book as a reference in how to manage patients with RA or SLE by prescribing appropriate drugs! We are going only to focus on the approach to the patients and providing the latest guidelines for management available for the reader of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access book presents practical approaches to managing patients affected by various rheumatological diseases, allowing readers to gain a better understanding of the various clinical expressions and problems experienced by these patients. Discussing rheumatology from an organ systems perspective, it highlights the importance ofdetailed musculoskeletal examinations when treating patients affected by rheumatological diseases. The book first explores the latest diagnostic approaches and offers key tips for accurate musculoskeletal examinations before addressing the various treatment modalities, with a particular focus on the most common joints involved in rheumatoid arthritis: the wrists and the metacarpophalangeal joints (2nd and 3rd). Featuring easy-to-understand flow diagrams and explaining the common medical problems associated with rheumatic disease, such as shortness of breath and anemia, it is not only a valuable resource to rheumatologists, but will also appeal to medical students, junior residents, and primary healthcare physicians.

Over the last few years, there have been considerable advances in this area, driven by clinical as well as technological developments. The authors are all internationally renowned experts in their field. They are also excellent teachers, and provide didactically outstanding chapters. The book is disease-oriented and covers all relevant imaging modalities, with particular emphasis on magnetic resonance imaging. Important aspects of pediatric imaging are also included. IDKD books are completely re-written every four years. As a result, they offer a comprehensive review of the state of the art in imaging. The book is clearly structured with learning objectives, abstracts, subheadings, tables and take-home points, supported by design elements to help readers easily navigate through the text. As an IDKD book, it is particularly valuable for general radiologists, radiology residents, and interventional radiologists who want to update their diagnostic knowledge, and for clinicians interested in imaging as it relates to their specialty.

This book was released on 2020-07 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed investigation of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), a chronic rheumatic disease that involves joints, entheses and skin. Although PsA has been considered as a milder form of arthritis, in the past decade, it has been proven to be a potentially serious disease like rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Radiographic findings, clinical presentation and laboratory tests reveal that PsA is a distinct joint disorder from RA. However, early diagnosis of PsA is difficult. The book illustrates how to accurately diagnose the disease through a systematic approach to PsA. It presents typical and important case studies, alongside rarer and interesting examples. It will be of interest to rheumatologists, dermatologists, orthopedists, radiologist, physiatrists, pediatricians, general physicians, and patients and their families.
