      This book aims to address some common problems which are seen regularly in gynaecology, sexual and reproductive health, but are often not considered in great detail. It is designed to provide direction on subjects which are peripheral to a specialty, but have a significant impact on patients’ lives nonetheless, and require expertise and intervention. These include cases on contraception and sexual health in transgender individuals, female genital mutilation, cervical screening in pregnancy, perimenopause, domestic violence, contact tracing and contraception. We hope it is helpful to hospital doctors, GPs, nurses, allied health care professionals and students alike. Mind the Gaps will help readers deal effectively with clinical and ethical dilemmas they may face in their practice, reducing the likelihood that problems are overlooked and ultimately improving outcomes for patients.

      Le nombre d’acte de radiologie interventionnelle à titre diagnostique et thérapeutique est en croissance exponentielle, notamment en ostéoarticulaire et en algoradiologie. La radiologie interventionnelle (RI) anti-douleur constitue désormais une option dans le cursus des radiologues. Le besoin de formation en la matière est donc très important. Cet ouvrage exhaustif est une référence sur le sujet. Il est consacré principalement à l’aspect musculosquel ettique de l’algoradiologie, mais aborde également les autres domaines moins connus où la RI est très prometteuse.Rédigé dans une perspective pratique, il propose une approche didactique des techniques, notamment grâce à de nombreuses illustrations. Les chapitres sont présentés pour permettre un apprentissage pas à pas de notions essentielles à la bonne réalisation des gestes : indications, contre-indications, rappels anatomiques, techniques, résultats, complications. Un bon nombre des techniques présentées sont accessibles aux praticiens ayant déjà une bonne expérience en RI percutanée diagnostique.Les premiers chapitres présentent des notions de bases indispensables sur les différents aspects de la douleur : psychisme, effet placébo, agents injectés, anesthésie perprocédure, astuces de guidage au scanner, réduction de dose. Vingt chapitres sont ensuite consacrés aux techniques d’infiltrations rachidiennes, décompressions discales, consolidations (cimentations et vissage), ablations osseuses, traitements endovasculaires, échochirurgie du canal carpien. Les algies craniofaciales réfractaires (arnoldalgies, algies vasculaires de la face, névralgie faciale) et algoneurodystrophie sont abordées dans quatre chapitres. Le traitement des douleurs abdominales et pelviennes (neurolyse ceoliaque et splanchnique, sympatholyses, infiltrations hypogastriques et impar) est également abordé. Enfin, les deux derniers chapitres envisagent le guidage échographique et IRM.Cet ouvrage s’adresse à tous les spécialistes (radiologues, algologues, rhumatologues, neurologues, oncologues) souhaitant approfondir leurs connaissances sur les dernières évolutions innovantes de l’algoradiologie.
