This thoroughly updated and expanded second edition remains the definitive reference for comprehensive clinical instruction in the use of high-frequency ultrasound for assessing peripheral nerves and their disorders, particularly focal neuropathies. Revised to integrate the latest advancements in the field, new applications, and next-generation equipment, this top-of-the-line text employs a “how-to” approach to describe clinical evaluation, including both normal and pathological findings along with discussions of relevant non-neurologic tissue.
The book begins with a thorough review of ultrasound physics, instrumentation, image optimization, and anatomy before providing a highly visual exploration of multiple nerves in the neck, shoulder, upper, and lower limbs. New chapters cover the evaluation of muscle and ultrasound-guided procedures. Anatomical sections have been significantly updated to include additional nerves and advanced concepts, featuring updated drawings and unprecedented visualization of smaller nerve segments captured by cutting-edge ultrasound equipment.
This practical text and atlas is the prime resource for neurologists, physiatrists, radiologists, sports medicine physicians
