Book Description
This comprehensive, meticulously illustrated volume effectively demonstrates the role of CT, MRI, MRS, ultrasonography, conventional radiography and nuclear medicine in evaluating the integrity and quality of skeletal muscle. Besides reviewing all imaging modalities, the book presents the complete spectrum of muscle physiology and pathophysiology - both normal and diseased. Highly-detailed illustrations highlight the in-depth survey of clinically significant muscle abnormalities. Radiologists will especially value the unique reference atlas of MR images of normal skeletal muscle. By incorporating exercise and MRI, advantage is made of the natural contrast between active and inactive muscle to remarkably enhance the definition of individual muscle anatomy. Certain to become an essential reference.

Neuromuscular Imaging
Author: Mike P. Wattjes
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461465524
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Neuromuscular imaging has increasingly become an important tool in the detection and diagnosis of inherited and acquired neuromuscular disease. This book is a groundbreaking radiological and neurological overview of current methods and applications of imaging—including aspects of neuroimaging and musculoskeletal imaging—in patients with inherited, metabolic, and inflammatory muscle diseases. Imaging features are discussed in the context of clincial presentation, histopathology, therapeutic options and differential diagnosis. World leading expert contributors give a comprehensive and didactic review of neuromuscular disorders and available imaging modalities, each illustrated with numerous figures. Topics discussed include: -Modalities such as ultrasound, CT and MRI -Muscle anatomy and physiology -Clinical applications in hereditary and acquired myopathies -Clinical applications in motor neuron disorders and peripheral nerve imaging

Sarcopenia

Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119597900
Category : Medical
Languages : de
Pages : 478
Book Description
Tiefgehende Analyse von Sarkopenie in der Gerontologie. Die Erkrankung ist noch immer wenig erforscht, hat jedoch weitreichende Auswirkungen in dem Fachgebiet. Von Sarkopenie sind ältere Männer und Frauen betroffen. Im klinischen Kontext spielt die Krankheit, die erst 2016 formal in die Internationale Klassifikation von Krankheiten aufgenommen wurde, weiterhin eine ungeordnete Rolle. Die gesundheitlichen und finanziellen Folgen können für eine Gesellschaft immens sein, wenn keine einheitlichen und effektiven Verfahren umgesetzt werden, um die Erkrankung zu erkennen und zu behandeln. In der überarbeiteten und erweiterten 2. Auflage von Sarcopenia erhalten Geriatern und weitere Experten aus dem Gesundheitssektor einen Überblick über diese kaum erforschte und wenig erkannte Erkrankung. Die Herausgeber sind namhafte Experten und betrachten die Epidemiologie und Diagnose der Sarkopenie, Behandlungsoptionen und mögliche Präventionsstrategien. Die acht neuen Kapitel bauen auf dem vorhandenen Wissensstand auf und liefern neue Erkenntnisse, u. a. zu Biomarkern bei Sakropenie und den Auswirkungen auf das Gesundheitswesen. Diese wichtige Publikation - definiert Sarkopenie und erläutert die klinische Relevanz. - präsentiert die jüngsten wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse. - beleuchtet Behandlungsoptionen. - erläutert Präventionsstrategien. - zeigt die Bedeutung von Sarkopenie im Gesundheitswesen. - enthält acht neue Kapitel, u. a. zu dem klinischen Management der Erkrankung, zu Biomarkern und zu den finanziellen Folgen. Die 2. Auflage von Sarcopenia ist ein bahnbrechendes und wichtiges neues Referenzwerk für Kliniker und weitere Experten in der Geriatrie, Altenpflege und Altenheimen und der Fachrichtungen Ernährung, Onkologie, Endokrinologie, Chirurgie, Sportmedizin sowie einer Vielzahl von Fachgebieten.

Muscle Injuries in Sports
Author: Hans-W. Müller-Wohlfahrt
Publisher: Thieme
ISBN: 3132580198
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 844
Book Description
The first book to focus exclusively on muscle injuries in sports! Accounting for the majority of sports-related disorders, injuries of the skeletal muscles have been difficult to define, classify, and treat mainly due to a lack of scientific background and missing guidelines. Now, for the first time, readers will find full coverage of muscle anatomy, physiology, diagnosis, imaging, treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention in one comprehensive volume. It includes a standardized terminology and new classification system, both based on a consensus conference that took place in 2011 in Munich. Special Features: Written by top international sports medicine physicians who have more than 35 years of experience treating competitive athletes, including the German national soccer team Emphasizes practice-oriented content with a scientific foundation Shares dozens of case studies that highlight injury assessment, pitfalls, and complications Provides more than 500 vivid, full-color illustrations and photographs, including detailed anatomic diagrams and tables At a time when athletic muscle injuries have increasingly become the focus of research and clinical studies, especially due to their frequency and impact on player absence, this book makes an enormous contribution to the field. It is essential reading for all sports medicine physicians, residents and fellows, physical therapists, coaches, and other practitioners involved in caring for athletes.
