Ultraschall des Bewegungsapparates

Safe in every examination situation! Ultrasound of the musculoskeletal system presents new challenges for physicians in emergency medicine, orthopedics, rheumatology, and surgery. Beginners in ultrasound, especially in the field of musculoskeletal imaging, often struggle to visualize which structures can be seen in which ultrasound planes. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a valuable diagnostic tool for assessing diseases or injuries of the musculoskeletal system. Particularly for emergency patients, ultrasound offers the opportunity to differentiate anatomical structures and identify pathological findings. This enables further examinations or therapies to be initiated. Each region of the musculoskeletal system has its own diagnostic peculiarities, both clinically and sonographically.

This practically oriented ultrasound book in a ring binder format presents examinations of the most important regions, the planes of the structures to be assessed (on the body, in anatomical images, and in ultrasound images), and explains the most important pathologies with corresponding sonographic illustrations. The ring binder has a handy format that allows you to use the book alongside your patients during examinations. It contains many tips and tricks on how to move the transducer to optimally represent the relevant planes. The illustrated notes on pathologies will help you accurately diagnose and treat your patients. Your practical companion at the ultrasound machine!.
