Stress
Fractures is a much-needed reference serves as your
best source for up-to-date, organized information on stress
fractures. Written by three leading authorities in this area,
Stress Fractures covers the pathophysiology, epidemiology,
risk factors, and treatment associated with these injuries.
The
reference provides both theory about development of stress
fractures and practical management of the various types and
sites of stress fractures. It is an essential reference for
all clinicians involved in the diagnosis, prescription, and
management of these injuries.
Authors
Peter Brukner, Kim Bennell, and Gordon Matheson draw together
their extensive knowledge base and expertise to provide current
and comprehensive information about the subject.
The
pathophysiology and epidemiology of stress fractures are covered
in the first two chapters. A general overview of diagnosis
and treatment of stress fractures is provided in the following
two chapters. In the concluding chapters, the management of
specific stress fractures is described in detail for the upper
limb, the trunk, the pelvis and thigh, the lower leg, and
the foot and ankle.
Recent
advances in nuclear isotope scans, CT scans, and MRI have
enabled stress fractures to be detected and identified much
more easily. Stress Fractures pulls together the important
information on the topic and offers a valuable, practical
guide to risk factors and treatment options for this increasingly
prevalent type of injury.
