520			_aPercutaneous Vertebroplasty is a concise and up-to-date reference that details the essentials for setting up a modern clinical lab, selecting patients, safely performing the procedure and avoiding pitfalls that are commonly encountered. Over 95 photographs, specially created for this book, provide the reader with detailed examples of how each aspect of the procedure is performed in an understandable step by step format. World-renowned pioneers in the field who have developed the basic science and clinical information relating to percutaneous vertebroplasty have written this book. This rapidly proliferating procedure is used to treat the pain associated with compression fractures of the spine resulting from osteoporotic vertebral collapse or tumor destruction. Subspecialty groups such as radiology, neuroradiology, orthopaedic surgery, and neurosurgery will benefit from the in-depth coverage of this cutting edge procedure. This ideal reference will address the full range of vertebroplasty from: *selection of appropriate imaging equipment and laboratory set-up for safety and efficiency *the most effective patient work-up to ensure maximal patient benefit from the procedure *descriptions of multiple methods of cement delivery device placement in difficult situations *appropriate use and choice of anesthetics and antibiotics *selection and preparation of cements for maximum work time and opacification *post procedure care and follow-up *complication recognition and avoidance *selection criteria and potential risks between osteoporosis and tumor *basic science data about cement selection, necessity and effects of opacification, quantity of cement needed for biomechanical augmentation, and cement thermal effects *present standards of practice and necessary quality improvement recommendations *future treatment opportunities in other bones and biomaterials that are likely to replace polymethylmethacrylate bone cement *appropriate billing codes and practice management concerns related to percutaneous vertebroplasty
