This review is from: Fundamentals of Sectional Anatomy: An Imaging Approach (Hardcover)

This is a very useful book for CT/MRI Technologists. The images are current and the labeling of anatomy is more detailed than most cross sectional books for Technologist. It is very helpful for Neuro anatomy, but could use additional labeling.

This book was very helpful. The text was easy to read, the labels were good and the pictures were excellant. I've loaned it to a co-worker and told her to make sure I get it back. It's definitely a keeper.

This review is from: Fundamentals of Sectional Anatomy: An Imaging Approach (Hardcover)

I bought this book to study for the CT registry. I was not sure if it covered all the anatomy that may be asked on the registry. When i was in the radiography program, we studied in detail every bone and every part of that bone. An example of this book is when talking about facial bones, it simply states mandible. It does not mention ramus, mandibular fossa, symphysis ect... This makes it easier to learn of course by not have alot of small detailed anatomy to memorize but i'm not sure that this is a good thing. Also, it could include longer tests, and maybe some diagram labeling.
