Conventional radiography in musculoskeletal imaging

Jordan B Renner. Radiol Clin North Am. 2009 May.

Conventional radiography in musculoskeletal imaging has a venerable past. This article outlines the development of radiographic techniques. It then discusses the continuing advantages of conventional radiography in many specific circumstances and acknowledges the circumstances in which CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear imaging are more useful modalities.
