Imaging for Students, Third Edition Reviews

The author's introduction to imaging will inspire many to pursue further infortmation and possibly careers in radiology ... The book excels in presenting large amounts of information in an easy to read and remember format and then uses radiographic images to reinforce the text ... This third edition provides an excellent overview of diagnostic imaging targeted for medical students, healthcare providers, and physicians early in their career. This edition provides recent updates in imaging, particularly multidetector CT imaging and MRI, not found in other entry level imaging textbooks.
