5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent text for students,
By A Customer
This review is from: Principles of Radiographic Imaging: An Art and a Science (Radiographic Technology) (Hardcover)
Overall, this is an excellent text for radiography students and also physician residents in radiology. The text is comprehensive and easy to understand. We particularly like the abundance of drawings and tables. The special imaging chapters are very detailed and provide excellent information for students and others who use this text for reference purposes. The chapter on mammography is particularly good as it is the only chapter of its kind in any textbook. This chapter is excellent for those programs that teach comprehensive mammography. The mammography art and images are superb. Seasoned radiography educators are authors of this text and that makes this a unique book and one that is accurate technically.

CD-ROM Not compatible with VISTA,
By Mike "MIke" (DE) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Principles of Radiographic Imaging: An Art and a Science (Hardcover)
Book is great. WARNING: CD-ROM not compatible with VISTA. Called Delmar Learning and they were not at all sympathetic. There are no plans to release a VISTA compatible CD-ROM.
