STM publisher Thieme Publishing Group, Germany, recently published 'Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Maturation.' The publication enables physicians dealing with the maturing skeleton and its complex maturation to quickly hone in on what is 'normal' for the specific case they are reviewing. This can be particularly useful when called upon to read a pediatric skeletal radiograph in the emergency room or while on call.
This unique resource, with its vast collection of print and DVD images of normal progressive skeletal development, provides physicians the full range of comparative information they need to interpret pediatric skeletal radiographs in any clinical setting. The images start at birth and then go to three months, six months, nine months, one year, fifteen months, eighteen months, twenty-one months, two years, three years, four years, and then one year increments until age twenty-one.
According to the publisher, this book is the reference standard for radiologists, paediatricians, orthopaedists, and emergency room physicians who are called upon to review a paediatric radiograph.
