    Lit. Update with Ray Liu

    This month we are joined by Dr. Raymond Liu from Case Western Reserve and Rainbow Babies in Cleveland to discuss his work on skeletal maturity grading systems, patient reported outcomes in limb deformity, and 3D anatomical studies. Hear about Mongolia pushing the limits in rigid nailing of pediatric femur fractures and stick around for highlights from the lightning round including ultrasound for fracture diagnosis, guided growth for patellar instability and 3D analysis after spinal fusion.
