La colonna vertebrale rappresenta il distretto anatomico maggiormente sottoposto ad indagini di diagnostica per immagini e, in tale campo, gran parte del "vecchio" conserva tuttora la sua attualita. La radiologia convenzionale, infatti, mantiene spesso il ruolo di metodica imaging di approccio, frequentemente esaustiva al fine diagnostico nelle varie affezioni, dalla patologia malformativa a quella degenerativa o traumatica. Allo stesso modo la ricca semeiotica TC costituisce tuttora un corredo irrinunciabile per l'imaging del rachide, particolarmente utile nella definizione del danno nel trauma ad elevata energia.

Il "nuovo," invece, e rappresentato sia dalle nuove modalita di studio che il progresso tecnologico ha reso possibili (la TC spirale multistrato e la RM ortostatica ne costituiscono gli esempi piu promettenti) sia dal diverso approccio alla patologia vertebrale da parte del radiologo moderno, per il quale l'imaging non riveste piu il solo fine diagnostico ma costituisce anche un fondamentale strumento per la terapia interventistica.

Il volume si inserisce in questo contesto come valido strumento di aggiornamento professionale mirato per il radiologo, ma risulta inoltre un'utile opera di consultazione per l'ortopedico, il reumatologo e il fisiatra.

One of the most disastrous consequences of the actual infinity is the conception of space and time as a continuum infinitely divisible. Basic concepts of physics as motion or velocity were, and continue to be, founded on that assumption. Matter and energy were also initially conceived as a continuum infinitely divisible. But the obstinacy of facts finally revealed that rather than continue, they are discontinue (elementary particle and quanta, respectively). It is now being suggested from different areas of science that space and time could also be of a discrete and finite nature. If that were the case we would have to redefine the foundations of a considerable part of contemporary science. For these reasons it is of capital importance to definitively prove if the actual infinity is or is not an inconsistent notion. This book opens a new way of criticism of the actual infinity based on the notion of w-order, an example of which is the natural order of precedence of natural numbers: 1, 2, 3, dots In spite of its apparent formalism, the reader with a basic level of mathematics and logic will be able to understand all its content.

How do the foreign policy priorities of Latino Americans relate to U.S. foreign policy in general and U.S. policy toward Latin America in particular? Public policy elites and the general U.S. public doubt the depth of Latino patriotism, suspecting Latinos of representing their homelands' interests over and above those of the U.S. Through a series of studies surveying Latinos throughout the U.S., this book demonstrates that Latino Americans are more like other Americans with respect to foreign policy than is popularly assumed. At the same time, differences between and among various Latino communities (e.g., those with ties to Colombia, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, and Mexico) exist, and may be a source of growing Latino political power perhaps more relevant to domestic politics than to foreign policy.
