The book is intended for specialists in imaging methods and particularly for first-contact physicians who encounter injuries and diseases of the hand and entire upper limb both in emergency departments and in their daily practices (surgeons, traumatologists, rheumatologists, as well as other specialties). A didactically well-written publication, which contains nearly four hundred color images and diagrams, will successfully guide the reader from the basics to advanced diagnostics. The book consists of 5 main sections: • Introduction (basics of ultrasound techniques in the area, image optimization) • Fingers and wrist (including tendon injuries, carpal tunnel and injection treatment, inflammation of the tendons in the dorsal compartment, wrist) • Forearm and elbow (nerve examination, lateral epicondyles, collateral ligaments, distal parts of the biceps) • Shoulder (including injection applications and treatment of adhesive capsulitis) • Limb tissues
