Stedman's "Radiology and Oncology Words" is a superb reference for the radiology transcriptionist. Having been a full-time in-house imaging transcriptionist for years now, I can vouch for the comprehensiveness of this fine volume. I use many references in imaging, including "Radiology Word Book" by T. Indora and S. Pitman's "Radiology Imaging Words and Phrases," but I would have to say that Stedman's is the volume in which the puzzled anatomical reference, interventional instrument, or medical mnemonic I'm searching for is usually found. Additionally, I have found Stedman's oncology section invaluable; the above-mentioned references are lacking in this very important field.

The only drawback I can think of regarding this fine reference is that this edition is July 1995. A lot of new medical equipment/terms have evolved since that time. Still, when compared to the aforementioned references described above, Stedman's "Radiology" is, in my estimation, tops. I highly recommend it.

Stedman's word books are all very useful to the medical transcriptionist. I have never had a word that I could not find in Stedman's books. I have several! You can't go wrong.

This book is used. The seller wrote "Like New" while the book is not extremely damaged, it is not like new. There are brown stains on the book so it should have been listed as used. Not "Like New".

Thank you.
