The illustrations are beautiful. There has been tremendous attention to detail. This is a definitive tome on high end orthopedic imaging. It contains information and concepts that are pretty cutting edge (that seem to just be getting into the literature). If you're looking for THE text on orthopedic imaging, this is the one. It BLOWS away the DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING Series - Orthopedics (by Dr. Stoller also).

This is a very large series of 2 books. Like that it's broken up into upper and lower extremity. Initially, cost freaked me out a bit. But, for what you get ... particularly the really high quality images and illustrations (and lots of them), it's well worth it.

This remains an essential textbook for musculoskeletal radiologists although one criticism would be that is a little dry . It steers clear of the opinion which makes books by Resnick or Helms so entertaining and useful. Stoller and some of the authors he has used for the chapters are enormously experienced and it would be good to read a more personal perspective .

Best book in orthopaedic surgery. Huge amount of photos and illustraions, in detail review, almost every disease and the sports injuries are covered in this book. Very practical, easy to read, must-have for orthopadeic surgeon. This is not only the best textbook, this is the beautiful artwork.

This is the definitive work on orthopedic imaging. The illustrations and images are all of high quality. Unlike many other reference books, this one actually gives you an approach to image interpretation for each joint, in addition to detailed discussions of the pathology. There is also a sample report with images provided at the beginning of each chapter. Although it is pricey, it certainly blows the diagnostic imaging book out of the water. Highly recommended for any radiolgist interested in providing high quality reports to your referring orthopedists.

THE BEST ORTHO/SPORTS MEDICINE BOOK I HAVE EVER READ. IT IS VERY WELL WRITTEN AND DIDACTIC. THE PICTURES ARE EXCELLENT ALSO

The book is well written and forms a great reference. Some of the data in the book is taken from so so studies.

The pictures are great. Lacking is data on the MCP joints.

All in all a good reference book.

The pinnacle of MRI Ortho sports! None better.
One edition old but the anatomy has not changed!
The book was "used"?? Was essentially new. Saved mucho!
Fast ship, great seller. Highly recommended!

Full of great drawings by Salvador Beltran, excellent quality MRI images, and handful boxes. The most didactic book on msk MRI. Greatly improved from the previous version. Definetly worth it, much better than the one from the Diagnostic Imaging series.

This book provides thorough reviews of disease process involving each joint. There are also chapters discussing bone and soft tissue tumors. Illustrations include MR images, intraoperative images, and pathologic specimen. I have found it very informative and helpful for my radiology residency. It is quite pricy with a price tag of nearly $300. So it is probably only meant for those of us who are really dedicated.
