Important strides have been made in understanding the pathophysiologic basis of many inflammatory conditions in recent years, but rheumatology remains a discipline in which diagnosis is rooted in the medical history skillfully extracted from the patient, the careful physical examination, and the discriminating use of laboratory tests and imaging. Moreover, selection of the most appropriate therapy for patients with rheumatic diseases also remains heavily reliant upon clinical experience. Medical disciplines such as rheumatology that depend significantly upon clinical wisdom are prone to the development of systems of ‘Pearls’ and ‘Myths,’ related to the diseases they call their own, a ‘Pearl’ being a nugget of truth about the diagnosis or treatment of a particular disease that has been gained by dint of clinical experience and a ‘Myth’ being a commonly held belief that influences the practice of many clinicians – but is false. This book will pool together the clinical wisdom of seasoned, expert rheumatologists who participate in the care of patients with autoimmune diseases, systemic inflammatory disorders, and all other rheumatic conditions.

Atlas of Rheumatology will become the best-illustrated book (and electronic interface) ever published on the rheumatic diseases. Premier clinicians in each area of rheumatology will provide illustrations related to their subject of expertise. The chapters in The Atlas will correspond closely with those in The Primer and A Clinician’s Pearls & Myths. The book will provide a trove of clinical illustrations to the trainee and the practicing physician, and will do so in a memorable fashion. Each figure will illustrate one (and usually more than one) important clinical lesson. Each figure will be provided with a clear, appropriate legend that expresses the figure’s lessons and extrapolates the findings to support a broader frame of knowledge. Each chapter will be illustrated thoroughly with clinical photographs and radiologic images. These figures will be different from ones included in the The Primer and A Clinician’s Pearls & Myths. These books can be cross-referenced extensively in The Atlas. The contributors for each chapter of the new book will be selected from the authors of The Primer and A Clinician’s Pearls & Myths. However, some authors may be replaced or supplemented by the inclusion of co-authors.
