4.0 out of 5 stars An Excellant Study & Review Series**, April 8, 2000

By 

Arnold E. Jaecks (Illinois, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Radiography (PREP) (Paperback)

This book was recommended by the Director of a local School for Radiographic Technology. I found the most current edition at AMASON.COM and another D.S. Saia book "Appleton & Lange's Review For The Radiography Examination, Fourth Edition." The "PREP" was essentional for my use, since I had been out of the field for 30 years. I became ARRT Registered in 1960 but dropped out in 1982. I have long wanted to return to the career I enjoyed most. This book brought me up to date quickly. I found it very comprehensive and current. It is most important to read and follow the KEY FEATURES AND USE information found in the Preface. The information in this book is extremely well organised and formated to make retention easy, especially with use of the MICROSTUDY disk with its chapter review tests and final exams. I actually enjoyed studying with these books. As evidence of their effectivenes, I passed the ARRT Exam with a 89, and am now employed full time as a Registered Radiologic Technologist.

that's it !. everything you need for the registry exam is here .it's like taking all of the student program and puting it into this great book.
a perfect mach for those who want to pass the exam first shot.
altough pathology is not expanded in detail - but using the mosby's "radiographic pathology for technologists" , will do the job. the book makes you a master!, you pass the exam using it!.

THIS BOOK WAS AN EXCELLENT WAY OF PREPARING FOR THE ARRT'S REGISRTY EXAM. THE BOOK INCLUDED ALL TOPICS FOUND ON THE EXAM. THE BOOK ALSO INCLUDED ILLUSTRATIONS AND EXPLANATIONS. ALSO THE BOOK INCLUDED A PRACTICE 200 QUESTION EXAM BASED ON THAT OF THE REGISTRY. I AM PURCHASING A 2ND COPY FOR A FRIEND OF MINE WHO IS ALSO TAKING THE EXAM.
