Cryoablation in the Musculoskeletal System
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2008Pain palliation can be challenging in patients with metastases to the musculoskeletal system, and conventional therapy can be less than optimal for pain management. Recent advances in technology have allowed for the addition of image-guided ablation to the armamentarium for treating musculoskeletal metastases. This article focuses on one such technique,

BIOPSIES OF THE MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1998Percutaneous biopsies of musculoskeletal lesions are a safe, economical, and reliable method of obtaining a diagnosis. Most of these biopsies are done under CT guidance, but fluoroscopy is an alternative. Conditions that can be discovered through percutaneous biopsies include metastases, primary benign tumors, infection, and metabolic disease ...

Sonography of the Musculoskeletal System
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1991High-resolution ultrasound is an imaging technique with increasing applications in the musculoskeletal system. With the development of high-frequency, realtime transducers, detailed images of small superficial structures can be provided. Tendons, muscles, and subcutaneous tissues can be assessed for disruption, masses, or fluid collections.

Assessment of the Musculoskeletal System
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1992Assessment of food animal lameness provides a great challenge but also can be extremely rewarding for the practitioner. An accurate diagnosis is essential if treatment, control, and prevention are to be successful. All facets of veterinary medicine and animal science must be applied in order to make an accurate diagnosis.

Dynamics of the Musculoskeletal System
Journal of Biomechanics, 1985In dealing with the dynamics of the human neuromusculoskeletal system it is soon realized that a subdivision into neural, muscular and skeletal system is only conceptually possible. Functionally, all three subsystems are interdependent and must be treated as such.

The musculoskeletal system is an organ system consisting of bones, muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage that support the body, allow movement, and protect vital organs. Musculoskeletal problems can occur at any age for many reasons, including congenital, developmental, postural, traumatic and neoplastic. Because the musculoskeletal system

Biomechanics of the Musculoskeletal System
Archives of Surgery, 1973Biomechanics is a study of force and motion and the interrelationship between them. Our activities of daily living depend on our ability to move. These movements in turn depend on our capabilities of producing muscle forces that can move the bones around the joints.
