Editorial Review:
Never before has essential diagnostic guidance been so quick and convenient to access! In conjunction with Amirsys Inc., W.B. Saunders is pleased to present a new family of pocket-sized diagnostic imaging resources unlike any other clinical references available. These titles are being offered both in paperback format, and as software for personal digital assistants (PDAs). Each volume explores the 100 most important diagnoses in a particular radiologic specialty. And, each volume features the authorship of a prominent expert in that specific area. Consistent, bulleted guidelines and crisply reproduced images make it remarkably easy to instantly confirm or rule out a diagnosis. The result is an on-the-go source for the information radiologists need to interpret images with confidence.- 16 volumes cover a wide range of radiologic specialties, including musculoskeletal imaging · head and neck imaging · neuroimaging · chest imaging · ultrasound · cardiac imaging · spine imaging · vascular imaging · pediatric imaging · gastrointestinal/genitourinary imaging · and emergency imaging.
- Two different formats suit the needs of any practitioner:
- The PDA versions of these resourcessimple to install on any Palm® or Pocket PC are extremely user-friendly and require very little practice to use.
- The paperback versions average 320 pages in length and are 5" x 8" in sizeso they can be carried
and consulted anytime, anywhere.
- For each diagnosis, readers will find 1 - 2 radiologic images/illustrations, plus lists of Key Facts ·
Imaging Findings · Differential Diagnosis · Clinical Issues · Pathologic Features · and References.
- Imaging Findings include General Features · CT Findings · and MR findings, as well as
Other Modality Findings and Imaging Recommendations (where appropriate).
- Pathologic Features detail General Pathology · Gross Pathologic/Surgical Features ·
Microscopic Features · and Staging or Grading Criteria.
- Clinical Issues address Presentation as well as Natural History and Treatment and Prognosis
(where relevant).

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - comparison to similar book
two previous reviewers have the opinion that this book is inferior to the book by kandarpa. After carefully reviewing both books, I believe that this is an understatement. Also, I wonder if the long laudatory review could have been confabulated by the author himself. If so this reflects poorly on amazon.com.
Finally, is the author a radiologist or a practicing radiologist?
Rating: - fair
it is, as the first reviewer points out, quite inferior to kandarpa's gem. the prior review sounds like it was written by the author.
Rating:  - All Residents should own it
The book is very helpful from basics to advanced topics. This book can serve as the only book needed for IR training in residency and oral boards preparation for radiology residents. Has individual chapters on puncture of IJ, Subclavian v, femoral v, femoral a, brachial a etc. Has individual chapters on all interventional procedures commonly performed in private practice hospitals and most of the IR procedures performed in University hospitals. All authors are fellowship trained at prestigious ... Read More
Rating: - huh?
i read the other reviews and i'm wondering what book did they read? you get a felling that the author really doesn't perform interventional procedures. i would have to recommend a better book - kandarpa's handbook is much better!
Rating: - Outstanding Book
Very convenient. User friendly. Excellent book for clinical work and Boards preparation.
