This book teaches systematic analysis of Orthopaedic X Rays.
The layout is designed to make the book as relevant to clinical practice as possible; the X-rays are presented in the context of a real life scenario.

This book has relevance beyond examinations, for post graduate further education and as a day-to-day reference for professionals.
