I am grateful to my co-editors, Chris and Mike, and our friends (the authors) who were instrumental in composing this educational textbook. Together we have worked to create a valuable reference for orthopedic fracture surgeons. Id also like to recognize all of the fluoro techs that I have worked with over the years.
Lastly, I would like to acknowledge and thank my family for the understanding and patience they have demonstrated in support of my career. It has been a long and tedious road with many call days and nights away from the people dearest to me. Luckily they embrace my passion for orthopedic trauma surgery and desire to publish. I have been blessed with unconditional love from my wife, Debbie, and children: Zac, Alexandra, Nadia, and Sophia. Coming home to them after each workday makes my life complete.

Thank you, my coeditors and chapter authors. Its been an honor and a privilege working with you to produce a great and timely practical reference. I am grateful to my mentors, who taught me the importance of getting the perfect fluoro shot and to the ortho trauma x-ray techs who performed magic in the OR. In addition, this book would not be possible if not for my residents past and present, keeping me on my toes with their thirst for knowledge. You guys continue to impress me every day.
I would like to thank my parents, Philip R. Smith and Susan E. Smith, for their encouraging support and for fostering my love for medicine and orthopaedics from an early age. Lastly, I would like to thank my family who have been by my side though numerous deployments and long hours at the hospital. To my wife Ashley, and children Andrew and Megan, thank you for your love, patience, and understanding. You guys are my rock and my life.

Id like to dedicate this book to all of my mentors at Hospital for Special Surgery, Harborview Medical Center, and Washington University who have spent countless hours and limitless energy in teaching me about all aspects of fracture care. Their passion for perfection has been awe-inspiring and has driven me to continuously search for ways to improve. And a huge thanks to my family for continuing to support me in so many ways.
