5.0 out of 5 stars
Equipment bible,
This review is from: Chesneys' Equipment for Student Radiographers (Paperback)
The author put the bare essentials of imaging in a very simplified detailed manner and is easily comprehended by all levels of individuals, in particularly technologists whom are starting in the field.Thorough facts on equipment are presentd in a very easy to read style that is soothing to the reader. A must buy for all budding technologists who want a good textbook on equipment as well as for future reference in their later years of practice.
