7th ed and Walter DM 775; soft tissues und Praxis I], Pt I of vol 6 of [Diagnostic Radiology in Clinical Practice]. Edited by Wolfgang Dihlmann, MD, Stuttgart: Thieme Verlag, 1989. Cloth, Frommhold, 1,008 pages; MD 2,227 figures. In the decade since the last appearance of volume 1 of this encyclopedic German-language work on musculoskeletal radiology, there has been much progress, reflected in part by the change in the wording of the title from the skeleton to include the bones, joints, and soft tissues. Chapters on tumors, written by J. Fneyschmidt, MD, are now included in place of the chapters on trauma that appeared in the earlier edition. Other topics include a comprehensive introduction to the skeleton and skeletal radiology by F. Heuck, patterns of skeletal disease, synovial membrane disease, anthrography, scintignaphy, osteomyelitis, tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, sclerotic disease, inflammatory disease, and other joint disease. The latter three topics are by W. Dihlmann, MD. Freyschmidt and Dihlmann have recently published excellent monographs on the same topics, and this volume contains highlights of those books in considerable detail and from an even more up-to-date perspective. As expected with the Schinz series, the illustrations are magnificiently me- produced and well selected throughout. There is a generous, useful integration of histologic pictures, some in color. Scintignaphy and computed tomography are nicely integrated. The major shortcoming relative lack of this 1989 of pertinent volume magnetic is the neso- nance (MR) images (as opposed to their inclusion in, for example, Diagnosis of Bone and Joint Disorders, by D. Resnick, MD, and G. Niwayama, MD (Philadelphia: W. B. Saunders, 1989). A result is that the excellent coverage of arthrography is outdated for modern radiology centers in which so many of these procedures are currently better done with MR imaging. A nice MR image is occasionally shown, however, particularly in Professor Heuckâs gem of an introductory chapter. For all other aspects of the topics in volume 1 on musculoskeletal radiology, Knochen-Gelenke-Weichteile I is highly recommended as a broad, current, useful textbook for all radiologists who read the German language.
