5.0 out of 5 stars Image Quality, November 21, 2000

By 

Michael McDermott (Fredericksburg, VA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: CD-Roentgen: Interactive Radiology Teaching File on CD-ROM (Audio CD)

A short response from the author to the reader from Japan: CD Roentgen is actually often applauded (in many journal reviews as well as from user feedback) for its image quality, with custom grayscale "look up tables" utilized to display carefully digitized images. The magnification feature doesn't just use the trick of "pixel doubling", but instead actually displays segments of an image with higher spacial resolution. I can only guess that there must be an issue with your individual computer. Please re-contact technical support. (Amazon made me pick a star rating, or it wouldn't let me post this!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great disc, June 6, 2005

This review is from: CD-Roentgen: Interactive Radiology Teaching File on CD-ROM (Audio CD)

Anyone who has used other radiology CD's will recognize the excellent quality of the images on this CD. They are great.

And author M.M. selected great cases, too: Mostly classic cases plus unique presentations of common diseases. A must for anyone who wants to see lots of cases, especially when preparing for boards.

One weakness: limited (if any) differentials are provided. But this weakness doesn't change my opinion that this is a great disc.

To make best use of this CD ROM, scale the monitor's resoluation to 640x480 when you use this CD and turn off all the room night as you do with actual reading.
