About this book

As it is quick, inexpensive, and non-invasive, ultrasound is the modality of choice for guidance of interventional procedures in the soft tissues. Furthermore, the rising mean age of the general population is being accompanied by increasing demand among patients for minimally invasive procedures to treat painful chronic and degenerative syndromes of the musculoskeletal system. This handbook is a clear, practical guide to ultrasound-guided minimally invasive treatments of musculoskeletal pain in the upper limb. Each chapter is clearly structured, with brief but comprehensive descriptions of the disease to be treated and of the materials and drugs needed. High-quality images and easy-to-follow schemes explain the best approach in each situation, and practical tips and tricks of value in daily clinical routine are provided.

Reviews

“This invaluable book provides a simple yet concise and accurate depiction of anatomy, pathology and treatment options. … I thoroughly recommend this succinct instructional book, suitable for novices to experts who may wish to further improve their injection techniques.” (Dr. Ne Siang Chew, RAD Magazine, February, 2016)
