Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Maturation
S. Lowell Kahn Cree M. Gaskin Victoria L. Sharp Theodore E. Keats
DVD included
Nearly 2,300 images provide the reference standard for normal skeletal maturation at every developmental stage
When dealing with the maturing skeleton and its many complex growth alterations, physicians are constantly faced with the question, Is this image normal? The Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Maturation succinctly answers that question by providing a comprehensive set of male and female reference images for every age and body part. This allows physicians to quickly hone in on normal ranges for the specific case they are reviewing, which is particularly useful when called upon to read a pediatric skeletal radiograph in the emergency room or while on call.
Special Features: Nearly 2,300 high-quality images that provide instant reference to normal views of the skeleton at every developmental milestoneavailable in both the text and accompanying DVD Multiple projections at every age, sex, and body part combination so that the user can match the reference points in the book to the case at hand and arrive at a solid clinical interpretation (e.g., Is the small fragment of bone observed in a 7-year-old boy with an acute elbow injury a fracture or a normal developing ossification center?) Practical text layout organized by gender and body part that provides quick access to images of normal development at any given age A software virtual skeletal survey demonstrates images of younger and older individuals and crystallizes the subtle variations in growth patterns Powerful software package with advanced image enhancement tools allows optimization of atlas image details for greater clarity. Compatible with numerous image formats (including DICOM) allowing viewing and editing of outside images Convenient growth charts in the book and DVD for reference
This unique resource, with its vast collection of print and DVD images of normal progressive skeletal development, gives physicians the full range of comparative information they need to interpret pediatric skeletal radiographs in any clinical setting. It is the reference standard for radiologists, pediatricians, orthopedists, emergency room physicians, internists, rehabilitation physicians, and training physicians who are called upon to review a pediatric radiograph and confi dently make a diagnosis.

Master radiographic positioning with this comprehensive, user-friendly text. Focusing on one projection per page, Bontrager's Textbook of Radiographic Positioning and Related Anatomy, 9th Edition includes all of the positioning and projection information you need to know in a clear, bulleted format. Positioning photos, radiographic images, and radiographic overlays, presented side-by-side with the explanation of each procedure, show you how to visualize anatomy and produce the most accurate images. Updated to reflect the latest ARRT competencies and ASRT curriculum guidelines, it features more than 200 of the most commonly requested projections to prepare you for clinical practice.
Labeled radiographs (radiographic overlays) identify key radiographic anatomy and landmarks
to help you recognize anatomy and determine if you have captured the correct diagnostic information on your images.
Positioning chapters, organized with one projection per page, present a manageable amount of information in an easily accessible format.
Unique page layout with positioning photos, radiographic images, and radiographic overlays presented side-by-side with the text explanation of each procedure to facilitate comprehension and retention.
Pathologic Indications list and define the pathologies most likely to be encountered during procedures covered in each chapter to help you understand the whole patient and improve your ability to produce radiographs that make diagnosis easy for the physician.
Pathology Demonstrated sections explain why a particular projection is needed, or what pathology might be demonstrated, to give you a larger frame of reference and a better understanding of the reasoning behind each projection.
Radiographic Criteria on positioning pages provide standards for evaluating the quality of each radiograph, helping you develop a routine for evaluating radiographic quality.
Pediatric Applications prepare students for clinical success - and prepare technologists to deal competently with the special needs of their pediatric patients.
Geriatric Applications include general information on positioning techniques and patient handling for geriatric patients, fostering an understanding of the challenges these patients present to the technologist.
Critique Radiographs demonstrate positioning errors and help you avoid similar errors in clinicals.
Instructor resources include an accompanying Evolve website with PowerPoint slides, an image collection, and a test bank to help instructors prepare for class.
Student resources include a workbook and handbook to help you better understand and retain complicated material.
NEW Updated art
visually demonstrates the latest digital technology used in radiography with approximately 250 new radiographs, positioning, and equipment images.
NEW and UPDATED Increased emphasis on radiation safety practices arms you with the information you need to know to succeed in clinical practice.
NEW Obese Patient Considerations include general information on positioning techniques and positioning modifications for obese patients to show you how to position this subset of patients accurately.
UPDATED Reflects the latest ARRT competencies and ASRT curriculum guidelines to prepare you for boards and clinical practice.
UPDATED Completely revamped surgical procedures chapter reflects current ARRT competencies and ASRT curriculum guidelines.
UPDATED Routine and Special Procedures sections moved to an appendix so you can refer to this necessary material quickly and efficiently.

Îïèñàíèå: You already have the most comprehensive and authoritative radiography text available -- now make sure you're getting the most out of it! The Workbook for Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning and Procedures, 12th Edition, provides plenty of practice and review of concepts presented in the atlas, helping you learn faster and retain essential information. Authors Eugene Frank, Bruce Long, Barbara Smith, and Jeannean Hall Rollins concentrate on the essential terminology, anatomy, and positioning information needed to ensure that you'll be ready to take the ARRT exam and be thoroughly prepared for the clinical environment. Correlation with main Merrill's Radiographic Atlas features exercises that support the digital positioning content in the atlas.
Wide variety of exercises holds user's interest and provides a variety of interaction with the content. Exercises on identifying errors on radiographs prepare users to evaluate radiographs in clinical situations. Anatomy and positioning exercises provide balanced coverage of both topics.
Abundance of labeling exercises ensures users recognize anatomical structures on actual radiographs. Comprehensive self-test at the end of each chapter enable users to accurately gauge their comprehension of the material and measure their own progress. Pathology exercises helps users understand which projections will best demonstrate various pathologies.
NEW! New images reflect all the content updates in the main Merrill's text. NEW! Detailed review exercises that cover osteology, anatomy, physiology, arthrology and radiographic examinationsNEW! Additional images for identifying essential projections
With more than 400 projections, Merrill's Atlas of Radiographic Positioning & Procedures, 14th Edition makes it easier to for you to learn anatomy, properly position the patient, set exposures, and take high-quality radiographs. This definitive text has been reorganized to align with the ASRT curriculum - helping you develop the skills to produce clear radiographic images. It separates anatomy and positioning information by bone groups or organ systems - using full-color illustrations to show anatomical anatomy, and CT scans and MRI images to help in learning cross-section anatomy. Merrill's Atlas is not just the gold standard in radiographic positioning texts, and the most widely used, but also an excellent review in preparing for ARRT and certification exams
Comprehensive, full-color coverage of anatomy and positioning
makes Merrill's Atlas the most in-depth text and reference available for radiography students and practitioners.
