This book demonstrates how even difficult cases can be diagnosed by taking a systematic approach to image interpretation. 
Drawing upon decades of experience, Dr. Freyschmidt guides readers from case to case while solving the core problems that arise in making a diagnosis. He 
shows how initially challenging cases can be turned into cases that only seemed difficult at the outset.

Step-by-step approach:

• Systematic case presentations: prior history 
  and clinical questions, radiologic findings, pathoanatomic classification, 
  synopsis and discussion, final diagnosis, and comments
• Arranged by 
  anatomic region: skull, spine, pelvis, shoulder girdle and thoracic cage, upper 
  and lower limbs
• More than 1,400 high-quality images from the author’s 
  case files
• Over 150 difficult and challenging cases from skeletal 
  radiology
• Answers questions such as: What are the requirements of a 
  good diagnosis? How is a good diagnosis defined? Which imaging procedure will 
  yield the desired information most quickly and accurately?
• Describes imaging modalities and gives 
  recommendations on selecting a particular modality
