For each joint, the book presents pertinent functional anatomy, kinesiology, and clinical information; describes the kinematic MRI protocol and technique; explains the normal kinematics; and provides a thorough presentation of the pathokniematics. Multiple case examples illustra…
Kinematic MRI refers to imaging a joint through a range of motion to examine the interactions between the soft tissue and osseous anatomy that comprise the joint. Kinematic MRI techniques were developed because various pathologic conditions are dependent on the specific position…
With publication of the sixth edition of Joint Structure and Function, we continue on a journey started nearly 40 years ago. The text at that time targeted a substantive void in the evidence-based kinesiologic foundations upon which an understanding of typical and impaired movem…
