“This book is mainly targeted at clinicians practicing paediatric rheumatology but is also suitable for radiologists and radiographers practising paediatric musculoskeletal imaging. … this is a well structured and illustrated book that is reasonably priced and a good addition to the library of a rheumatology or radiology department. It would benefit from better proof reading. I look forward to a second edition in the future and would like to congratulate the editors and authors for their efforts.” (Vijay Jayaram, RAD Magazine, June, 2020)
