This book is an attempt to offer pragmatic approaches in the ever-growing field of ultrasound as a point-of-care tool. Ultrasound is safe, noninvasive, cost-effective, and an efficient point-of­care tool in the hands of clinicians but requires in-depth understanding of anatomy. Knowledge of anatomy here is fundamental to the precise application of this modality. Your ultrasound image acquisition and interpretation skills are limited by your understanding of 3-dimensional anatomy of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Keep in mind not just where to find the structure but the course and fiber orientation of the structure of interest. This book provides detailed anatomical illustrations of imaging regions with key points highlighted to shorten this learning curve.
