A reasonably helpful book when learning how to do cardiac ct.
Latter chapters seem a bit out of context (?? written earlier than the first half of the book).

I bought this book because I had heard of Budoff and ended up completing the course offered by Rumberger. The book was thorough yet concise, easy to read yet containing complicated subject matter. My friend bought a different CT book and he ended up reading mine becuase he liked it better. Definately would recommend the book. The book will also help you fly through Level II training.

This is a great book for those beginning to learn cardiac CT. The physics part is not very extensive, but is clear enough for a non-radiologist (ie cardiology fellow) to follow.

this is the best cardiac CT textbook I have found. Very useful for those entering the field, as well as those who have been in the field for a while

Best delivered price. Quick delivery. Doesn't get any better!

The wave of cardiac CT is increasingly gaining momentum in the field of cardiology. It has the potential to revolutionize the traditional practice of cardiology particularly for the management of subclinical and clinical coronary artery disease patients. Cardiovascular professionals who do not wish to fall behind the curve are rushing to equip themseleves with the knowledge and the technology. In this book, Dr Budoff and colleagues most of whom I know from their outstanding research, give hands to the early adopters. The book provides an excellent state-of-the-art review on the subject. It also reviews related applications of cardiovascular MRI and nuclear imaging. I have found the CD companion of the book quite handy.
