This review is from: Fraser and Pare's Diagnosis of Diseases of the Chest (4 Volume set) (Hardcover)

This book is an all time medical classic. It presents one of the most comprehensive collection of chest roentgenograms found any where. It's organization is unique in that it allows one to arrive at a diagnosis by starting with a particular pattern on a chest xray. The authors are clearly master clinicians. This is one of the best organized and most extensive medical text that deals with differential diagnosis. It is a worthy addition to any collection of medical books worthy of being called a library.
