| Summary: | "This atlas is intended to give obstetricians, paediatricians, neonatologists, radiologists, molecular and clinical geneticists, as well as anatomo-pathologists, a thorough insight into conditions (and variants) of skeletal dysplasias. Clinical and imaging findings are properly illustrated, enriched by updated genetic information. This acclaimed text returns in a revised form, with updated material particularly on the new knowledge surrounding the genetic basis and mechanism for the various skeletal dysplasias. No clinician dealing with fetal or neonatal skeletal diagnosis or treatment will want to be without access to the wealth of illustrations and detail condensed here"-- |

She hosted an international meeting for this society in Oxford in 2001 and was also Chairman of the Committee for the International Nomenclature and Classification of Constitutional Disorders of Bone. She was a founding member of the Skeletal Dysplasia Society for Teaching and Research (SDG) UK in 1978 and is actively involved with this group, which has a membership of about 300. In 2004 Professor Hall was awarded Honorary Membership of the European Society of Paediatric Radiology for services to paediatric radiology. In 2019 Professor Hall was awarded Honorary Membership of the International Skeletal Dysplasia Society. Amaka C Offiah is the first black and first female Managing Editor of the journal Pediatric Radiology, Convener of the Skeletal Dysplasia Group for Teaching and Research, Chairperson of the European Society of Paediatric Radiology Child Abuse Taskforce, and co-Chair for the North-East Region of the Experts in the Family Justice System Committee. Francesca Forzano is the current Chair of the Public and Professional Policy Committee of the European Society of Human Genetics, and a member of the Scientific Programme Committee of the ESHG annual conference. She has been co-director of the European Course in Genetic Counseling in Practice for the past 15 years. Mario Albino Lituania is a retired Consultant Obstetrician Gynaecologist from Galliera Hospital, Genova, Italy. From 2003 he was Director of the Fetal and Perinatal Medicine Unit at Galliera Hospital, and Contract Professor at the graduate school of Medical Genetics at the University of Genova (since 1991). Gen Nishimura is a semi-retired pediatric radiologist, who is currently assigned as Visiting Professor, Center for Intractable Diseases, Saitama Medical University Hospital, Japan; Adjunct Professor, Pediatrics, the University of Utah, Utah, USA; and Consultant, K1 Department of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden. He has also contributed to recent revisions of the International Nosology and Classification of Genetic Skeletal Disorders (2006, 2010, 2015, 2019, 2023 revisions). Valérie Cormier-Daire is a medical geneticist (MD, PhD) and Professor of Genetics (Université Paris Centre). An active member of the European Society of Human Genetics and of the International Skeletal Dysplasia Society, she is a partner in eight industrial projects on clinical trialsand is the owner of two patents.
