"In summary, Imaging Musculoskeletal Trauma Interpretation
and Reporting is a very well-written textbook with comprehensive
evaluation of fractures and fracture-dislocations of the axial and
appendicular skeleton, with minor limitations. This book can be
recommended as a useful guideline in radiologic evaluation and
interpretation of musculoskeletal trauma cases for radiology
trainees, practicing radiologists, and other clinicians with an
interest in musculoskeletal trauma." (Journal of
Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 25 February 2014)
