Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews: "This book is … a ‘review of pediatric x-rays.’ … primarily is intended to help medical students, residents and clinicians recognize anatomic details on radiographic images in the absence of a radiologist. The abundance, accuracy and quality of images should achieve this goal. Another positive aspect of this text is the availability of clinical history for patients, which helps the clinician correlate information to make a sound diagnosis, interpretation or treatment plan." (Mark Schubert, Radiologic Technology, Vol. 78 (6), July/August, 2007) "A collection of diagnostic images with accompanying questions in multiple-choice format. It could be used effectively by a variety of groups: as a preparation guide for the physician contemplating a specialty in pediatrics, for radiology residents preparing for a pediatric clinical term … . very helpful from the teaching perspective—not only to physicians and radiology residents, but also to radiological technology students. … I highly recommend this book … as it was a very interesting and challenging read. I couldn’t put it down!" (Inez Filice, Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Sciences, Vol. 39 (104), June, 2008) "Pediatric Radiology Review, written for an audience of nonradiologists (medical students, residents, and clinicians) involved in the medical care of children, consists of 6 sections (chest, lateral neck, abdominal, skull, and long-bone extremity radiographs and head CT). ... the book would be useful for medical students, residents, pediatricians, and general practitioners who care for children because it provides a focused examination of radiologic diagnoses and treatments of common pediatric diseases." (Nancy E. Fitzgerald, The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 49, 2008)

This review is from: Pediatric Radiology Review (Contemporary Medical Imaging) (Hardcover)

Has some good examples but doesn't provide a comprehensive review of the topic. I don't have a better book, but there must be one somewhere.
