Assessment of the Lower Limb Book

A comprehensive guide to the examination and assessment of the foot and lower limb - an essential initial process for anyone presented with a patient with problems in this part of the body. Brings together in one volume information which otherwise has to be gathered from a variety of sources (ie anatomy textbooks, treatment textbooks, journal articles, professional guidelines etc). The text examines in a logical order the stages which should be gone through in order to arrive at an accurate diagnosis. The problems of differential diagnosis are discussed and supported by descriptions of the most common pathologies. There are all essential steps for any clinician examining the foot no matter what area of treatment he or she specialises in. The book does not deal with the actual treatments so is relevant for all professions involved in the assessment and diagnostic process.Read More
