This review is from: Abdominal-Pelvic MRI (Hardcover)

Para radiologistas/residentes que trabalham ou querem trabalhar com ressonancia de abdome e pelve, o livro apesar de grande e pesado tem no texto basicamente o essencial, e é o composto na maior parte de muitas fotos de qualidade, o que faz render a leitura e agregar conhecimentos que refletem diretamente na pratica do dia a dia.
