Introducing a brand-new volume of The Core Curriculum-a series of textbooks that are indispensable as both guides for radiology residents' rotations and study tools for written boards or recertification exams. Each volume of The Core Curriculum examines one key area--such as ultrasound, neuroradiology, musculoskeletal imaging, cardiopulmonary imaging, breast imaging, head-and-neck imaging, or interventional radiology--and focuses on the essential information readers need to do well on the boards. The user-friendly presentation includes chapter outlines...tables...bulleted lists...boxed text...margin notes...key review points...hundreds of illustrations...and an easy-to-follow layout.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good resident textbook, November 2, 2004
By 
This review is from: Breast Imaging (The Core Curriculum Series) (Hardcover)
This is a good textbook for the radiology resident. This book is a significant improvement over the previous breast imaging companion. These include:

1. Switch from outline format to prose. Outline format is useful for review, but does not lend itself well to a straight read-through. This book was designed to be read.
2. A lot more images, both improved in quality and format. Many cases are presented in a logical fashion. Screen-diagnostic-ultrasound-biopsy workups are presented multiple times. This is really a big improvement over the 1-2 image "show me" style, since mammo often requires these types of workups. The ultrasound images are also excellent.

The aspects I would like to see improved on would be a section devoted to common management and diagnostic problems in mammo. There is some discussion of management issues scattered throughout the text, but I think this deserves its own section since it plays such a large part in mammo.

I would give this text 4 stars overall, but for the price I'll bump it up to 5 stars.
