  • Injection Techniques in Musculoskeletal Medicine

    A Practical Manual for Clinicians in Primary and Secondary Care
    • 5th Edition
    • Stephanie Saunders + 1 more
    • English
    The fully updated fifth edition of Injection Techniques in Musculoskeletal Medicine is a trusted step-by-step guide for a wide range of practitioners who deal with the management of painful joints and soft tissues, particularly in relation to sports and overuse injuries. Area-by-area guidance is given for each lesion on appropriate patient selection and delivery of the drug. Every technique has its own two-page spread, the first consisting of a detailed but easy-to-follow description of the causes, positive assessment findings, anatomical details and injection procedure. The facing page shows an anatomical illustration of the region and a photograph displaying landmarks for the injection. This edition features brand-new full-colour photographs and case studies. An online trainer, which covers all the most common injection techniques and aims to test the reader’s knowledge, accompanies this edition. This trainer uses case studies, videos, animations and interactive self-assessment on anatomical landmarks, differential diagnoses, assessment criteria, drug selection and technical skills. There is also access to a library of over 50 video clips showing supplementary injection techniques, which clearly demonstrate the correct anatomical position for each needle insertion.

  • Anatomie dentaire

    • 1st Edition
    • Françoise Tilotta + 2 more
    • French
    L’anatomie dentaire comme toute anatomie de système est à la fois descriptive, topographique et fonctionnelle ; elle intègre nécessairement l’anatomie comparée et des notions de croissance et de développement. Françoise Tilotta, Alain Lautrou et Gérard Lévy ont veillé à ce que cet ouvrage prenne en compte ces divers aspects de cette discipline anatomique fondamentale de la dentisterie qu’ils enseignent à l’Université Paris Descartes. Ce livre, illustré de plus de 380 figures, expose d’une manière didactique l’anatomie descriptive des dents permanentes et temporaires, l’anatomie de la croissance et du vieillissement, l’anatomie fonctionnelle et l’anatomie topographique du système dentaire. Enfin, un guide pratique de reconnaissance reprend d’une manière synthétique les caractères morphologiques qui permettent d’attribuer une identité à une dent isolée. De nombreuses considérations et applications cliniques accompagnent le texte tout au long de l’ouvrage et soulignent l’intérêt évident de la connaissance de l’organisation anatomique du système dentaire pour le clinicien. Ce livre est destiné en priorité aux étudiants des facultés de chirurgie dentaire et des formations de prothésiste dentaire, ainsi qu’aux étudiants et internes en cours de spécialisation. Il s’adresse également aux praticiens inscrits dans des formations post-universitaires ou exerçant dans d’autres disciplines médicales (médecins, pédiatres, chirurgiens maxillo-faciaux), ou même dans d’autres domaines universitaires (médecine légale, anthropologie) qui y trouveront une occasion d’acquérir, de rafraîchir ou de compléter leurs connaissances sur le système dentaire.
