Product Description
This book will provide the reader with a comprehensive study of the cervical spine in children and young adults. Written by Dr. Leonard Swischuk, a distinguished leader in the field of pediatric radiology, the book will present normal anatomy and embryology, especially as it is relevant to trauma, normal variations and congenital anomalies. The second part of the book deals with trauma, focusing on a systematic accounting of the various injuries encountered and each explained in terms of the mechanism of the injury. Emphasis is placed on plain films; as this is the most important study for the cervical spine. CT and MRI will be used to amplify findings. An indispensable resource for anyone dealing with the C-spine. |

| Neonatal Cranial Ultrasonography
by Gerda van Wezel-Meijler (Author)
Despite advances in neonatal care, neonatal cerebral injury remains a major cause of morbidity, mortality and disabilities. Cranial ultrasonography provides information on brain maturation in the (preterm) neonate and enables detection of frequently occurring brain anomalies in this patient group. It can be repeated when necessary. After the introduction of neonatal MRI, cranial ultrasonography has been relatively neglected. While modern textbooks are available on pathological conditions of the...
