Review

One of the most informative books . . . I cannot imagine anyone in the CT profession who would not want it. -- Radiologic Technology

From the Author

This maual was written for medical students, technicians, interns and residents in Radiology as well as for physicians who are at the beginnning of their clinical training and wish to become acquainted with the subject of computed tomography. The emphasis is on the normal anatomic orientation. Numerous diagrams are shown and annotated with numbers that are listed and explained on the cover flaps. Additionally, the most common and important pathologic changes and normal variants have been selected as study examples. Pathogenesis, clincial findings and therapy are intentionally excluded: for further learning, the reader should consult the vast number of textbooks available on radiology, internal medicine, surgery, pathology, etc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best anatomy and pathology book for CT I've ever seen., February 24, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: CT Teaching Manual (Paperback)

There is no better book on the market for cross sectional anatomy. The book uses normal anatomy vs. pathology examples for every body part and major condition that would be visualized with CT imaging. Easy to read, high quality pictures are taken from real Siemens images and put alongside illustrations that label the anatomy.

This book also gives outstanding guidelines for interpreting images. This would make it perfect for radiology or surgery residents.

This book has impressed everyone in my department. Docs and techs alike been impressed by it. Its affordable, not too big and packed with great images.

If you need a cross sectional anatomy text for CT Applications, look no further. Buy this book!!!

This review is from: CT Teaching Manual (Paperback)

I found this by accident and anybody who is cross-trained into CT and wants to sit for the ARRT registry in CT should have this book. Learned more than any other book I have bought. I have spend over $600 on other recommended books and this is best by far

This review is from: CT Teaching Manual (Paperback)

I have read Hofer's Ultrasound Teaching Manual, and the CT Teaching Manual is just as good. Easy to read, many nice pictures, helpful facts and not too expensive. Helpful if you read this with the Webb/Brant/Helms CT book.
