5.0 out of 5 stars The best imaging anatomy texts - bar none!, September 21, 2007

By 

Terry Dolorosa (Concord, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Diagnostic and Surgical Imaging Anatomy: Musculoskeletal (Hardcover)

This series of anatomy texts has no peer. Each section outlines the key facts, presents superbly executed graphics in explanation, then proceeds to meticulously demonstrate the fine details and subtleties of imaging anatomy using well-labelled and captioned images from every imaging modality ---from plain radiographs through ultrasound, CT, MR, scintigraphy, and even PET.

Admittedly the three volumes will set you back nearly a $1,000 if you get the e-book option (very worthwhile to avoid lugging the set back and forth from home to work), but nothing else comes close to such completeness and quality.

This review is from: Diagnostic and Surgical Imaging Anatomy: Musculoskeletal (Hardcover)

Strictly an anatomy book, but very good. I use way more than DI orthopedics or stoller. The anatomy is in high detail with short but very useful discussions. Predominantly MRI, but also ultrasound, xray and CT where appropriate. Standard, CT and MR arthrography anatomy as well.
