Atlas of Pain Management Injection Techniques

For each diagnosis "indications and Clinical Considerations", "Clinically Relevant Anatomy", "Technique", "Side Effects and Complications" and "Clinical Pearls" are given. These are somewhat limited in scope, but certainly present anough information to help refresh clinicians knowledge and help them educate their patients. Also, there are always injection techniques that escape immediate memory. Procedures not performed in a while can easily be caught up on through this text. The illustrations and technical info is good. One area that might be somewhat lacking is in diagnosis. Some attention is paid to other potential diagnoses, but this is quite limited. Howeverm, it is clearly not the intention of this bbok to be comprehensive ortho-neuro-physiatric pain textbook. It is an atlas only. Anyone looking to have a atlas of local injections will be gald this text is on their shelf.

This is a light hearted, nicely written, very well illustrated book. It presents many practical clinical conditions and approach then in a systematic but a simple way. Interesting to rheumatologists, anaesthetists, orthopaedic surgeons and pain clinicians, it make for a very enjoyable reading.
