Description
Diagnostic Imaging II features clinical imaging of the musculoskeletal system in various disease states. Lectures are geared toward a practical, problem-solving approach to musculoskeletal conditions and a systematic approach to interpretation of diagnostic imaging studies will be utilized. Emphasis is placed on the interrelationships between the fundamental histopathology and pathophysiology, the observable changes seen on imaging studies, and clinically relevant physical and biochemical findings. Categories of bone disease to be discussed include primary benign and malignant neoplasms of bone of various histological etiologies, metastatic disease of bone, vascular pathologies, nutritional/metabolic and endocrine diseases, osteomyelitis, inflammatory and degenerative arthritis disorders, and autoimmune connective tissue disorders such as systemic lupus and scleroderma.
