Covering much of the new information appearing over the last five years, the book includes four new chapters presenting the diagnostic approach in bone and joint infections, discussing the identification of pathogens by non-culture techniques, management of multi-resistant bacteria in bone and joint infections ­by bacteriophages, and unusual microorganisms in periprosthetic joint infections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany of the chapters are also updated to include new information on topics like eubacterial PCR, multiplex PCR, and the shotgun metagenomics approach. These subjects are of increased applicability and interest to increase the fraction of cases with identified pathogens. The book also helps clinicians to understand MRI-based images and rapidly interpret and plan for comprehensive therapy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReaders will also benefit from the inclusion of:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thorough introduction to the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antibiotics in bone and preclinical models of infection in bone and joint surgery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn exploration of native joint arthritis in children and adults, as well as an overview of septic arthritis of axial joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA practical discussion of the general aspects of periprosthetic joint infection, as well as specific aspects of periprosthetic joint infection after total hip and knee, shoulder, elbow, and ankle arthroplasty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA concise treatment of osteomyelitis in children and adults\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for infectious disease specialists, microbiologists, orthopedic and trauma surgeons, and internists, \u003ci\u003eBone and Joint Infections: From Microbiology to Diagnostics and Treatment\u003c\/i\u003e will also earn a place in the libraries of professionals working in the implant industry and pharmaceuticals, as well as clinical pharmacologists and rheumatologists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWerner Zimmerli\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus in Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases and Consultant for Orthopedic Infections at the Kantonsspital Baselland\/Liestal.
