      Since its first publication, almost two decades ago, A System of Orthopaedic Medicine has proven to be a reliable resource and guide for those clinicians working in the field of orthopaedic medicine who assess and treat the effects of musculoskeletal pain. This third edition remains focused on clinical reasoning and diagnosis, with detailed guidance on palpation of the anatomical structures and the correct performance of each therapeutic technique. Following the ‘System’, the clinician first completes a systematic clinical assessment of the joints involved, and then, after interpreting the results, groups the disorders and conditions into clinical syndromes. Finally, the natural history and the conservative treatment of each condition are discussed accordingly. NEW!

      L'échographie thyroïdienne est, à l'heure actuelle, reconnue par tous comme l'examen d'imagerie de première intention dans la pathologie nodulaire et la prise en charge du cancer tyroïdien. L'écho-doppler ouvre la voie de l'échographie thyroïdienne fonctionnelle, qui permet d'aborder la prise en charge des dysthyroïdies avec une clairvoyance nouvelle. Le succès de la première édition parue en 2006 et l'évolution constante des techniques imposaient aux auteurs de faire une mise à jour précise de l'ouvrage. En plus d'une iconographie actualisée, deux nouveaux chapitres permettent d'aborder des thématiques jusqu'ici non traitées. La classification TI-RADS et l'élastographie, qui constituent des véritables révolutions dans la pratique, bénéficient de chapitres dédiés. Cette nouvelle édition résolument pratique et didactique, propose par ailleurs : - la reprise des différents chapitres : thyroïde normale et variantes, goitre, nodules, cancers, thyroïdites, dysthyroïdies, thyroïde traitée et cytoponction thyroïdenne échoguidée ; - un nouveau schéma de repérage ganglionnaire, adapté aux possibilités des échographistes et aux besoins des chirurgiens; - un complément en ligne accessible via Internet et enrichi de multiples vidéos, permettant ainsi une illustration la plus représentative des examens dispensés.Outil indispensable dans la pratique quotidienne, cette nouvelle édition s'adresse aux radiologues et échographistes et aux thyroïdologues et endocrinologues.
