This book is a concise guide to soft tissue and bone pathology. Presented in a multiple choice question format, the text is a study tool for trainees to test their knowledge on the pathology of tumours and tumour-like conditions in the musculoskeletal system and soft tissues.

Topics covered are those that commonly arise in examinations and in daily practice. Images have been carefully selected to challenge trainees and help them prepare for exams.
