5.0 out of 5 stars Anatomic atlas for body imaging, March 21, 2006

By

(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)   

This review is from: Pocket Atlas of Sectional Anatomy: Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging : vol. 2 Thorax, Abdomen, and Pelvis (Paperback)

Organized into chest, abdomen, pelvis and MR angiography of the lower extremity, this book is excellent in junior residents to learn multiplanar anatomy. The MR images are T1 weighted with schematics of normal anatomy and quality is excellent. CT images are provided in the axial plane are equally good. Also covered is basic MR angiography of the chest, abdomen, and lower extremities.

This book is a worthwhile investment for those considering anatomic atlases for a nominal cost. Highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Pocket Atlas of Sectional Anatomy, Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaing, Vol. 1: Head and Neck (Paperback)

We are using this book and Vol. 2 & 3 as well for quick reference.
I would recommend this book to new students for cross sectional anatomy.
Even the seasoned technician needs a quick reference book from time to time.

This review is from: Pocket Atlas of Sectional Anatomy, Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaing, Vol. 1: Head and Neck (Paperback)

Direct book for rapid review of the anatomy from a CT or MRI. The small size make it easy to carry in your pocket. Althought this new edition changed its content. It should have included the brain and spine in the same book as in the last edition. Anyway it's a great little book!
