2010 Musculoskeletal Ultrasound For The Extremities: A Practical Guide To Sonography Of The Extremities
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

A Practical Guide to Sonography of the Extremities is the foundational text to performing MSK scanning. Identifying normal anatomy is pre-requisite to diagnosing pathology and using ultrasound for injection guidance. This full-color, easy-to-follow guide is designed to introduce the physcian, medical sonographer, and other healthcare providers to complete scanning protocols.

This book provides a very straight forward and practical format for review. I keep this book handy next to my ultrasound machine to review appropriate probe placement. While a more extensive textbook is important to have, this practical guide is a great quick reference for any learner---novice or experienced.

This book is a 'practical guide' to sonography of the upper extremities. In instituting these services in our ultrasound lab, the book was helpful in standardizing our protocols for our diagnostic tests in imaging. The book has a wonderful section on 'normal mean values' of cross sectional images of critical anatomic structures like tendons, nerves, bursae. I particularly learned a lot from the chapters on the Shoulder, Elbow, Hip and Knees, and Ankle.

This book provides a concise overview of the relative anatomy and scan protocols for evaluation of the upper and lower extremities. Anatomical diagrams combined with transducer placement, normal ultrasound images and a step by step description of the scan protocols makes this textbook a great resource to enhance and reinforce the learning experience. The book also includes the hip and several sample reports as an added bonus. I highly recommend this book for the medical professional learning how to perform MSK ultrasound or as a quick protocol reference in the department.

Moore is relatively concise and appropriately provides some background on ultrasonography technique and terminology. There is little discussion on pathology/differential diagnoses. This text works as a decent primer for MSK ultrasound, but it shouldn't serve as the end-all, be-all. Jacobson's MSK ultrasound book is roughly the same size and length, but better provides understanding of probe positioning and descriptions of technique. Images are also better in Jacobson.If you require the absolute best, Bianchi's text is the reference. Many of his images of probe positioning show both ultrasound and MRI correlates. However, it is roughly 6-8 times the cost of Moore and Jacobson.

This guide book is "To The point" ! It provides the information in an organized manner and leaves out most of the random stuff that you will never use on a daily clinical basis. Ultrasound text books can fill your head with useless numbers and scans that are clinically irrelevant, but this guide book wades through all that, and gives the "meat and potatoes" of MSK ultrasound. The book is extrememly handy to keep close during scans for reference. Dr. Moore provides illustrations in order of first probe placement, then anatomy, and then the ultrasound image ,which is great for training. Again the book is clutter free and easily navigated. If your looking for a guide book that is straight forward and gets you a basic understanding fast then this is the book for you.

I wish I could say something positive about this book. Many omission, mistakes, poor pictures and illustrations. I kind a regret of buying it.

I am new to MSK scanning so I really appreciate this book. However, since I am referring to it while scanning, I would've preferred a spiral bound version for easier use.

Not an easy read. It is unnecessarily complicated. Videos and text in separate areas and requires going back and forth.
