5.0 out of 5 stars You do not need lots of pictures to learn radiology!, June 24, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Radiology Recall (Paperback)

This book is a great way to start getting acquainted with Radiology. It gives a good background on some technological facts and a useful coverage of specific pathologies that you need for differential diagnosis. Emphasis on background knowledge can be more helpful for learning in radiology then simply looking at radiology picture examples. This is a great book for medical students in their last 2 years of uni!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for the price, May 23, 2005

This review is from: Radiology Recall (Paperback)

Two things are noteworthy about this book: the excellent black-white illustrations and quick review over common radiology questions. The book is divided by radiology sections, and usually start off with simple anatomy pictures and labelled illustrations of the relevant modality. This is very nice, since many radiology texts do not bother to show examples and illustrations of relevant anatomy. The illustrations are also much more valuable then looking at an atlas like Netter's, since only important radiological structures are drawn. The lists of differential diagnoses are good, though they require you to already what each diagnosis is. I don't find that a problem considering the size and scope of the book.

This is a good book to read through but not as a primary resource. Use this book for quick recall after reading other radiology books.
