While the second edition of Yu's (radiology, Ohio State U. Medical School, Columbus) resource text retains 90 subjects from the first edition considered to be essential core material in orthopedic radiology, 80% of the material in the revised edition is new--110 entirely new topics, some 600 new board-type questions, and 200-plus new references. In addition, all of the b&w images have been replaced with new ones giving the text an updated, fresh look. Also included are musculoskeletal ultrasound images, which were lacking in the first edition, and the text has been brought in line with others in the Case Review series to allow referral to the third edition of The Requisites: Musculoskeletal Imaging by Manester, May, and Disler. Suitable for use by radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, and trainees of all levels, as a tool for board examination review or for sharpening interpretive skills.
