About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“Emergency Musculoskeletal Imaging in Children … is a concise text geared toward radiologists interested in improving their interpretation of pediatric fractures. … this book is a useful catalog of practical tips and experience-based knowledge from one of the stalwarts of pediatric radiology. … For the radiologist who only occasionally deals with childhood trauma, or who may struggle with confounding pediatric fractures, having this handy book in the reading room would be beneficial.” (Stephen F. Simoneaux, Radiology, Vol. 273 (3), December, 2014)
