Synopsis

The miss leaves no trace.

Landmark-guided injection lands where you intended less often than most clinicians expect — and nothing on examination tells you otherwise. The patient improves or doesn't. The record says the injection was given. What it can't say is where the agent actually went.

Image-guided technique closes that gap. But only when three things are known at the moment the needle moves: where the probe sits, where the needle enters, and what correct spread looks like on the screen.

Textbooks bury that in prose. Pocket references list doses without the anatomy. Neither helps when the patient is positioned, the probe is in your hand, and you need the answer now.

Built for that moment.

134 image-guided procedures. Fully illustrated in full color. 156 anatomical figures.

Every entry follows the same ten fields, in the same order, every time:

Target · Indications · Sonoanatomy · Position · Transducer · Approach · Injectate · Confirmation · Pitfalls · At Risk

The page reads identically whether you're injecting a subacromial bursa or hydrodissecting a tibial nerve at the tarsal tunnel.

Why the illustration matters here

Tissue planes are the whole procedure. Bone, tendon, muscle, cartilage, vessel, and injectate spread are illustrated in full color across all 156 figures — because a black-and-white sonoanatomy diagram asks you to imagine the one thing you most need to see. This is an image-first reference: you see the target before you read about it.

What sets the entries apart

Structures at risk are named — and so is the error that reaches them. Not a vague caution about nearby anatomy. The specific trajectory mistake that finds the ulnar nerve at the cubital tunnel, the sciatic nerve behind the trochanter, the radial artery at the volar wrist.

Confirmation is defined for every target. What correct spread looks like, and what the image shows when the tip is in the wrong plane — because an injection that flows easily is not the same as an injection that landed.

Needle gauge, length, and injectate volume are stated for every procedure, alongside the probe position and approach that make them appropriate.

Coverage

Shoulder · Elbow · Wrist and Hand · Hip and Pelvis · Knee · Foot and Ankle · Axial Skeleton

Joint and bursal injection, peritendinous technique, percutaneous tenotomy, calcific barbotage, perineural hydrodissection, cyst aspiration, and diagnostic block — each illustrated and mapped to its probe position and needle path.

150 board-style review questions

The atlas closes with 150 multiple-choice questions drawn from the procedures themselves. Every question carries a worked explanation — why the correct answer is correct, and why each distractor fails. Correct answers are distributed evenly across all five option positions, so the bank rewards clinical reasoning rather than pattern recognition.

For sports medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, pain medicine, rheumatology, orthopaedics, and emergency medicine — from residents learning image-guided technique to clinicians extending their range of targets.
