Each view described has been carefully evaluated and a brief discussion of its realistic clinical usefulness, advantages and disadvantages has been provided.

The Supplement section in numerous chapters provides ancillary information to read the radiographs and modify the treatment. Relevant suggestions are provided for appropriate positioning of the C-arm image intensifier that is now an integral part of an orthopaedic surgeon&rsquos work. A crisp, easy-to-refer style has been used throughout the book. All these features make this book an excellent ready reference for Orthopaedicians, radiologists as well as radiographers.
