Better uses of your time 2010-07-08

By Karl A. Schultz (Houston, TX)

This is the four volume set that I was told is the "Bible" of lower level radiology residents. I was unimpressed. It does cover all organs and all ages but it is very skimpy on pictures, usually giving only a single example of most pathology. Also, if a certain disease is most commonly dx on, say, CT, then no US or MR images are included even if that disease is occasionally dx on those modalities. Worse, many diseases discussed lack any pictures at all. Color images are skimpy. Also it is verbose in some sections that cover extraneous details and lacking in depth on important topics. Equally frustrating is that the index is only in volume IV, making it difficult to access if you only brought volume II to read at work. I read most of it with much effort. Buying and reading more focused books (US Requisites, CXR-Felson, Pediatric Imaging-Donnely, Body CT-Webb) would be a much better use of your time as an intern or lower level resident.

A must have for 1st year radiology residents 2010-02-14

By A. Abayazeed (TOWSON, MD, US)

The book is very well organised and is extremely concise on the specific information you really want to know.
It is a must have book for R1.The images are great and I specifically enjoyed the Neuro and Peds chapters.The online access of the book makes it very easy to read while on call or any where were you have internet access.

This is an essential Radiologist's reference book. Helps greatly with Residents. Organ-related sorting of information.

Best all around primer of diagnostic radiology 2009-03-03

By Eagle Vision (Southeastern United States)

I used this book throughout residency, and this is an excellent introductory text to the major subspecialties in diagnostic radiology. The book is well written and image quality is excellent. Insert boxes emphasize important teaching points and the differentials are well organized.

With the online access, you can download images for creating teaching files for board review, and you can read the text online, if you wish.

The best chapters cover neuroradiology, musculoskeletal radiology, pediatric radiology, and chest. Mammography, ultrasound and nuclear medicine are not as detailed to the same level. I reach the respective chapters prior to starting my rotations in residency, followed by reading the requisites/case review series (in addition to other supplementary or definitive texts in that subspecialty).

WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR?

Radiology residents
Surgical specialties (specific to their field of interest)
Primary care physicians (specific to their field of interest)
Diagnostic Radiologists (in general)

VERDICT

All in all, I highly recommend this text.

Improved from 2nd ed. 2008-12-07

By Joffre P. Lewis (Reading, PA USA)

While only 100 pages longer than the 2nd edition, this book improves on that edition. It is a "core curriculum" for all the facts and information that a general radiologist in a community hospital setting should master, requiring only slight supplementation based on the needs of his individual practice. The text is uniformly clear and concise but very readable. Almost all the pathologies are illustrated so little is left to the imagination and the charts and tables are extremely useful. I read the 2nd edition cover to cover when it came out and plan to do the same with this edition. 20 plus years out of fellowship this book is like a refresher course, sitting by a viewbox with an attending.
