Clinical and Radiological Anatomy of the Lumbar Spine 5e continues
to offer practical, comprehensive coverage of the subject area in a
unique single volume which successfully bridges the gap between the
basic science of the lumbar region and findings commonly seen in
the clinic. Prepared by an author of international renown, Clinical
and Radiological Anatomy of the Lumbar Spine 5e provides clear
anatomical descriptions of the individual components of the lumbar
region, as well as the intact spine, accompanied by a full colour
artwork programme. Detailed anatomical descriptions are followed by
an explanation of the basic principles of biomechanics and spinal
movement together with a comprehensive overview of embryology and
the influence of age-related change in the lumbar region. The
problem of low back pain and instability are also fully explored
while an expanded section on medical imaging completes the volume.
Clinical and Radiological Anatomy of the Lumbar Spine 5e offers
practical, validated and clinically relevant information to all
practitioners and therapists working in the field of low back pain
and will be ideal for students and practitioners of chiropractic,
osteopathic medicine and osteopathy, physiotherapy, physical
therapy, pain medicine and physiatry worldwide. Presents a clear
and accessible overview of the basic science relating to the
structure and function of the lumbar spine Written by an
internationally renowned expert in the fields of both clinical
anatomy and back pain Describes the structure of the individual
components of the lumbar spine, as well as the intact spine Goes
beyond the scope of most anatomy books by endeavouring to explain
why the vertebrae and their components are constructed the way they
are Provides an introduction to biomechanics and spinal movement
with special emphasis on the role of the lumbar musculature
Explores both embryology and the process of aging in the context of
spinal structure and function Explores mechanical back pain within
the context of the structural and biomechanical principles
developed earlier in the volume Extensive reference list allows
readers seeking to undertake research projects on some aspect of
the lumbar spine with a suitable starting point in their search
through the literature Perfect for use both as an initial resource
in undergraduate training in physiotherapy and physical medicine or
as essential reading for postgraduate studies Greatly expanded
section on medical imaging Increased elaboration of the regional
anatomy of the lumbar spine Includes chapter on reconstructive
anatomy, which provides an algorithm showing how to put the lumbar
spine back together Presents an ethos of 'anatomy by expectation' -
to show readers what to expect on an image, rather than being
required to identify what is seen
