This resource illustrates and discusses the pathologic, radiographic, and differential diagnostic aspects and clinicopathological correlations for a full range of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions of the bones and joints. A bulleted, outline format makes reference quick and easy, and a bonus CD-ROM--new to this edition--offers all of the books illustrations in electronic format. Uses more than 950 full-color illustrations, along with concise descriptions, to capture the radiographic, microscopic, and macroscopic features of all types of tumors and tumor-like conditions of the bones and joints. Offers concise summaries of diagnostic and differential diagnostic criteria pathological features radiologic features special stains and immunohistochemical techniques biological behavior and follow-up and treatment and prognosis for each lesion. Includes a CD-ROM that offers all of the books illustrations in electronic format, downloadable into presentation software. Reflects all of the latest advances in musculoskeletal diagnosis, from the newest immunohistochemical approaches to the most current imaging approaches and disease classifications.
