A Comprehensive Guide to Management

An essential orthopedic surgery resource for accurate review of musculoskeletal and spine MRI studies Most orthopedic surgeons learn the skill of reading MRI diagnostics in an informal fashion during residency, fellowship, and clinical practice. Unlike radiologists who are trained to evaluate MRI studies in a systematic fashion, orthopedic surgeons rely on anatomic expertise and experience, which may not be the most accurate interpretation method. MRI in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine: The Essentials edited by Uma Srikumaran, Amit Jain, and A. Jay Khanna provides a foundational basis for understanding MRIs and their interpretation in a clinical context.

This textbook is the third in a series of three, with the prior two entitled MRI for Orthopedic Surgeons and MRI Essentials for the Spine Specialist. This volume incorporates relevant text, images, and drawings from the prior books, while featuring current and new theories and practices, contributions from acknowledged experts, and additional illustrative material. The 21 chapters are organized into five sections: MRI Essentials, Upper Extremity, Lower Extremity, Neurological Imaging, and Tumors.

Key Highlights

- Contributions from orthopedic surgeons, spine surgeons, spine specialists, and radiologists provide well-rounded clinical perspectives specific to the musculoskeletal system

- An organized, systematic approach to viewing musculoskeletal MRIs facilitates accurate diagnosis and treatment selection

- Review of normal anatomy, anatomical variants, and pathology enhances diagnostic skills

 

This textbook will help orthopedic surgeons, sports specialists, and spine specialists learn how to systematically evaluate and interpret MRI studies of the musculoskeletal system and thereby improve clinical practice. Radiologists and other specialists who treat patients with various musculoskeletal conditions will also benefit from consulting this reader-friendly reference.

This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.

Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.

A systematic guide to musculoskeletal and spine MRI interpretation, fusing insights from orthopedic surgeons, spine specialists, and radiologists. Divided into five sections covering anatomy, pathology, and tumors, it sharpens diagnostic skills through updated theories, clear visuals, and practical imaging review.

The Essentials

MRI in Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine

AN INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER “Evenhanded and insightful.”&nbsp; —Publisher’s Weekly (starred review) “An accessible, often fascinating primer.... Essential, illuminating reading.” —Kirkus From the author of the New York Times bestseller The Digital Doctor comes an engaging, clear-eyed, and ultimately hopeful examination of healthcare’s efforts to embrace generative artificial intelligence. In A Giant Leap, physician and thought leader Robert Wachter navigates between hype and skepticism to make a compelling case for AI’s power to transform healthcare. He argues that, in a system buckling under the weight of bureaucratic pressures, soaring costs, and clinician burnout, AI doesn’t need to be perfect—it only needs to be better. Drawing on extensive research and more than 100 interviews with pioneers across medicine, technology, policy, and business, Wachter shows how AI is already entering hospitals and clinics to draft notes, field patient questions, recommend treatments, interpret images, and guide surgeries. He unflinchingly confronts risks like hallucinations, biases, and misinformation, while revealing how AI can now match, and sometimes surpass, physicians in areas ranging from diagnosis to empathy. But this isn’t simply a technology story. It’s about the human choices that will determine whether AI becomes healthcare’s salvation or another source of harm and frustration.&nbsp; Blending clinical insight, vivid storytelling, and journalistic precision, A Giant Leap offers an indispensable roadmap for healthcare leaders, clinicians, and patients. It&nbsp;is a vibrant and timely account of how AI is changing what it means to care—and be cared for—in this age of astonishing technology.

How AI Is Transforming Healthcare and What That Means for Our Future

A Giant Leap

Truer now than when it was written—the prophetic classic now back in print. Twenty-six years after its original publication, Borsook’s “smart, funny and irreverent” (The New York Times) critique of high-tech has proved a prescient assessment of a toxic ethos which has seeped into every corner of our world. Cyberselfish saw the warning signs about a culture violently lacking in compassion, tremendously opposed to regulation, more comfortable with computers than people, and surprisingly ignorant. An ironic position, given this cohort was perhaps the single biggest recipient of the greatest government subsidy of technology and expansion in history. But it is also a culture that believes in Ayn Rand and the stockholder theory of value and acts as if privacy isn't for the Little People. Borsook foresaw that once tech boomed to new heights of financial success, those at the helm would feel their achievement in one sphere should result in greater power and influence in others. Today, as titans of the tech world have inserted themselves even further into all aspects of society, Borsook’s insights have become more universally applicable than even she could have imagined. But what will result if the people who shape public policy know nothing about history or political science or, most importantly, how to interact with other humans? Cyberselfish posits this is the true revenge of the nerds.

A provocative rethinking of the intersection of death, technology, and disability, for a better life. We are all cyborgs, relying on technology—whether it’s Alexa, a pacemaker, or a titanium knee—for our quotidian existence. In our deep connection to a technological world, from robots to augmented and virtual realities, metaverses, and gaming, Candi Cann sees an opportunity, and good reason, to question our ideas about accessibility and inclusion. In augmented, she asks us to reconsider traditional notions of biology and death. Having relied on hearing aids from the age of four, Cann uses her experience to challenge readers to reconsider their assumptions about technologies and their role in life—and death. She also focuses on what it means that most of us are living longer with the intervention of medical technologies, and how a better understanding of our relationship to technology will grant us greater control as we age. Drawing on her life experience in Asia, the author explains how cultural and religious views of machines and artificial intelligence vary globally—in particular, how a Western fear of machines contrasts with an animistic worldview that can see machines as conduits of care for others, embedding spiritual possibilities.

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF NEW SCIENTIST'S BEST NEW SCIENCE BOOKS OF THE YEAR SO FAR: 'An insider's must-read book.' 'From the scientist who identified the remains of Richard III, this lively, myth-busting tour of modern genetics unpacks how DNA solves crimes, rewrites history and shapes our lives. It brims with timely questions about what our genes can (and can't) reveal.' - i-paper 'Unequivocally expert.' Sunday Times 'Combines fascinating history and science with brilliant storytelling' - Professor Alice Roberts, anatomist and bestselling author of Domination 'A glimpse into the fascinating world of DNA under the guidance of a true expert...Accessible, enjoyable and thought provoking.' - Professor Sue Black, forensic scientist and bestselling author of All That Remains -------------- DNA has become one of the most powerful tools in modern science; From unlocking crime and immigration cases, to ensuring our food and animal safety, to resolving questions of history and archaeology, ancestry and even, for some, identity. In this eye-opening book, Professor Turi King - the scientist who identified the remains of Richard III in a Leicester car park - uncovers how genetics is changing the way we understand the world. Through compelling real-life cases, she shows how DNA has solved crimes, rewritten history, and reshaped ideas of who we are. From the O. J. Simpson trial to mistaken dinosaur DNA, from Dolly the sheep to Angelina Jolie's BRCA1 gene, King brings genetics to life with fascinating examples that reveal what DNA can - and can't - tell us about who we are. She reminds us that while our DNA can reveal a predisposition to certain diseases and conditions, it doesn't determine our future. And, perhaps most importantly, she shows why we all need to be part of the conversation about how new genetic discoveries are used for the benefit of life on Earth. Compelling, compassionate, and entirely captivating, The Secrets of Our DNA is the must-read book about how genetics has changed - and is changing - the world.

Künstliche Intelligenz verändert klinische Entscheidungsprozesse. Wo medizinisches Fachpersonal und KI gemeinsam entscheiden, entstehen kritische Fehler selten im Menschen oder im KI-System allein. Sie entwickeln sich in der Mensch-KI-Kollaboration, oft leise, schrittweise und unbemerkt.

Dieses essential macht diese Fehlerquellen und Fehlermuster mit einem klinisch anwendbaren Drei-Achsen-Modell sichtbar: menschliche Faktoren, KI-bedingte Systemeffekte und emergente Dynamiken an dieser Schnittstelle. Leitend ist die kognitive Souveränität: Fehlentwicklungen früh erkennen, rechtzeitig unterbrechen und KI verantwortlich in die Patientenversorgung einbinden.

The Harriet Lane Handbook

This book constructs a model of informed consent to surgery utilising empirical ethics and socio-legal analysis to bring together medical ethics, medical professional regulation, and medical law. The work includes an original socio-legal analysis of the models of informed consent to surgery present in court judgments and fitness to practise decisions. It constructs such a model using the empirical ethics methodology of reflexive balancing to both develop and challenge its construction. This unified model enables patients to make autonomous choices about surgery by encouraging healthcare professionals to draw upon the patient's subjective perspective, as well as objective viewpoints, when determining what information needs to be given to patients about treatment. It incorporates a focus on the importance of patients understanding that information and having the opportunity to reflect upon it. The outcome is a model of informed consent to surgery that speaks to medical ethics, medical professional regulation, and medical law, giving equivalent weight to the insights offered by each. The book will be an invaluable resource for students, academics and researchers working in the area of Medical Law and Ethics and Bioethics.

A crucial subversion of the misconceptions around the participation of genderdiverse athletes advocating for the inclusion of trans and nonbinary athletes across all levels of sport The debate over the inclusion of gender diverse people in sport has become the latest battleground in the fight for basic human rights and equality. Trans and nonbinary people around the world are facing physical harm and violence—including death—at unprecedented rates. In Let Us Play, trans athlete Harrison Browne and investigative journalist Rachel Browne reveal how the opposition towards gender diverse athletes is fueled by fear and a moral panic as opposed to facts around what makes “a level playing field.”&nbsp; Interweaving Harrison’s first-hand experience as a transgender athlete with exclusive accounts—from athletes, coaches, policymakers, and advocates on the front lines—Let Us Play dismantles the illusion that sports have ever been fair, that trans athletes pose a threat to women’s sports, and that gender-affirming healthcare for athletes should be prohibitive to play.&nbsp; Calling for a reframing of the binaries from youth and high school levels all the way to the national leagues, Browne and Browneoffer a new path forward, led by solutions proposed by gender diverse athletes themselves. In more recent news, author Harrison Browne has jointed the Heated Rivalry universe! He plays Connors in episode 4, titled "Rose".

In der nun 9. Auflage liegt der praxisnahe Kodierleitfaden für die Viszeralchirurgie für das Jahr 2026 vor. Die Abbildung chirurgischer Fälle im DRG-System wird anhand von Definitionen, Hitlisten und Beispielen anschaulich erklärt. Dabei werden die Themen Viszeralchirurgie und Transplantationschirurgie dargestellt. Ein eigenes Kapitel widmet sich den 2024 eingeführten und 2025 und 2026 deutlich erweiterten Hybrid-DRGs, die in der Chirurgie 2026 mit der Aufnahme von Cholezystektomien und Appendektomien massiv an Bedeutung gewinnen.Die Viszeralchirurgie ist in der DRG-Vergütung inzwischen komplex abgebildet und wurde in den letzten Jahren vom InEK wiederholt gründlich überarbeitet. Auch für 2026 wurde die Abbildung operativer Fälle im System aktualisiert. Dabei standen routinemäßige klassifikatorische Anpassungen im Mittelpunkt der Aktivitäten des InEK. Auch wurden wieder Kodes für neue Operationsverfahren und Zusatzkodes für die Verwendung spezieller Materialien oder Apparate eingeführt.Daneben gibt es eine Vielzahl an Detailänderungen bei den Prozeduren, die der Leitfaden umfassend darstellt. Die Bedeutung und der Umgang mit splitrelevanten Prozeduren werden im Leitfaden ausführlich erläutert, ebenso die weitere Differenzierung der Beatmungs-DRGs oder die neue Kodierregel zur Sepsis.Die zunehmend kritisch vom MD geprüften Konstellationen im Fachgebiet werden mit den aktuellen Fakten präsentiert. Daneben werden wiederkehrende klinische Situationen, wie beispielsweise die Kodierung der Segmentresektionen bei Stomarückverlagerung, umfassend besprochen. Sämtliche Diagnosen, Prozeduren, Fallpauschalen und Kodierrichtlinien, die die Viszeralchirurgie betreffen, werden für das DRG-System 2026 aktuell dargestellt. Ebenso dargestellt werden die Entscheidungen des Bundesschlichtungsausschusses, die für die viszeralchirurgischen Themen an den entsprechenden Stellen erläutert und kommentiert werden. Dies betraf seit 2023 u. a. die Cholezystetomie.
