Authors Mark H. Awh, MD, and Michael E. Stadnick, MD, both founding members of Radsource in Brentwood, Tennessee, mine their extensive knowledge of musculoskeletal radiology to collaborate on this concise work that clearly illustrates for the referring non-radiologist the clinical presentation of common foot and ankle injuries, and how an understanding of advanced imaging methods used in radiological evaluation of tendon and ligamentous injuries of the foot and ankle serves to obtain diagnostic information that leads to confident therapeutic decision-making. From plain radiograph to MR imaging, this short work provides an indispensible reference for every orthopedic surgeon and podiatrist.

Authored by board certified radiologists, many of whom also teach at the finest medical schools in the U.S. and abroad, each ebook is presented in a clear and concise manner meant to be read in less than an hour, yet contains all the necessary information with which to base a decision on when to order advanced imaging studies for the particular disease process under review.
