Kinematic MRI of the Joints: Functional Anatomy, Kinesiology, and Clinical Applications

Kinematic MRI of the Joints is the first authoritative textbook on this emerging application. For each joint, it presents pertinent functional anatomy, kinesiology, and clinical information; describes the kinematic MRI protocol and technique; explains the normal kinematics; and provides a thorough presentation of the pathokinematics. Multiple case examples illustrate the usefulness of kinematic MRI for diagnosis or elucidation of pathologic conditions. It includes functional anatomy and kinesiology for each joint and comprehensive information on kinematic MRI for each joint. It also provides a special section on special procedures to describe kinematic MRI examinations and a glossary.
