The Radiology of Emergency Medicine, first edition a classic, continues to serve as a practical handbook for treating acutely ill or injured patients, with applicability of newer imaging techniques such as ultrasound. The authors aim to provide a practical handbook expanded to include newer imaging techniques like ultrasound and CT for clinicians treating acutely ill or injured patients. The book is organized by organ systems and skeletal divisions, with chapters covering general considerations, anatomy, variations, and pathology, and now includes sections on ultrasound and CT. The second edition maintains the original excellence, offering well‑balanced coverage that is not exhaustive, with slightly more detail on skeletal topics but no serious deficiencies.
The first edition of<i>The Radiology of Emergency Medicine</i>rapidly became a classic in the field. This second edition has upheld that level of excellence. The authors, a radiologist and an orthopedic surgeon, have again produced a practical handbook, useful for all those who treat the acutely ill or injured patient. The revised addition has been expanded to include the application of newer techniques, such as ultrasound and computed tomography (CT). The organization of the book is unchanged from the first edition, with chapters arranged according to major organ groups and divisions of the skeletal system. The chapters each offer general considerations, normal anatomy and variations, and discussions of various pathological conditions. Each subject is covered well without being exhaustive or esoteric. The skeletal topics are covered in somewhat more detail than the chest and abdomen organ systems, but this is not a serious deficiency. The applicability of ultrasound or
