Topics covered include • Imaging techniques and their role in orthopaedic imaging in particular image optimisation especially for CT and MRI.

• Nuclear Medicine and its role in orthopaedic imaging especially in infection.

• Imaging strategies and findings for common implant pathologies especially infection and, sterile loosening and their differential diagnosis.

• Implant technology has led to a bewildering number of materials and designs. The reasons for this will be explored and strengths and particularly weaknesses and typical complications will be demonstrated by an engineer and orthopaedic surgeon.

• The typical problems and complications of orthopaedic implants in the most relevant areas will be reviewed by a team of an orthopaedic surgeon specialised in this area and a radiologist. • Implant related problems especially soft tissue problems such as bursitis, nerve injury and muscle and tendon problems.

Aims to provide a primer for dealing with non-traumatic bone lesions.  Each subject will be introduced with a short overview of typical imaging features, followed by the review of multiple cases of the same pathology in its various guises.  The differential diagnosis will be outlined.  This course aims to give a grounding in how to approach bone lesions for all specialities loking at bone radiographs.

The main emphasis will be on radiographic appearances but other imaging modalities will be included.  The lectures will be delivered by doctors working in a specialist bone tumour centre.
