Ultrasound Of Musculoskeletal Infections

The book "Ultrasound of Musculoskeletal Infections" offers a comprehensive analysis of the role of ultrasound examinations in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal infections. It is aimed at medical professionals and highlights the use of ultrasound as an imaging technique that provides high-resolution representation of infections in the skeletal system. While ultrasound is not considered a primary diagnostic tool in acute osteomyelitis, its usefulness in assessing juxta-articular regions and in monitoring subperiosteal abscesses is emphasized. The book also discusses the application of ultrasound for locating infection processes in joints, muscles, bursae, and synovial sheaths, as well as for assisting in the needle aspiration of abnormal fluid collections. The content is designed to enhance the understanding and application of ultrasound in clinical practice.
