Prepared by two leading experts in musculoskeletal ultrasound
and a well-known podiatrist, this atlas is a complete guide to
the use of ultrasound in the diagnosis of foot and ankle
disorders. More than 160 illustrations display both normal
ultrasound anatomy and a variety of common (and some uncommon)
pathologic states.
For each region of the foot and ankle, the atlas shows normal
ultrasound anatomy and appearances of specific disorders. The
authors compare the utility of ultrasound and MRI, particularly
in detecting soft tissue injuries and foreign bodies. A chapter
on ultrasound-guided therapeutic injections and diagnostic
aspirations is also included.
