Reviews
From the reviews:
“Orthopedic surgeons at all levels of training can benefit by improving their visual understanding of the patellofemoral joint. Orthopedic residents and fellows will find these images valuable. … This atlas is both free-standing and a nice complement. … this is a worthy addition to the literature.” (Mark R. Hutchinson, Doody’s Book Reviews, May, 2013)
