"Because Jacobson is the sole author of the book, the writing style is consistent and easy to read...In the preface, Jacobson states that his goal is 'to teach the fundamentals of musculoskeletal ultrasound in a concise and efficient manner.' He clearly achieved his objective. This book will appeal to both musculoskeletal and general radiologists and should be part of any radiology library." - AJR
