Fundamentals of Diagnostic Radiology

Rating:
Summary: Concise but not enough for residency.
Review: Not a bad overview of most subjects, but some areas are lacking. The bone trauma subsection is particularly scant, excluding all of the fracture grading schemes. Additionally, while somewhat dedicated to differential generating, you don't really get a feel for what is actually common.

Rating:
Summary: Great
Review: The new version has an ultrasound section which is more extensive than the first edition. The book is sound and an excellent review. It is certainly the new review book as opposed to other texts. It is good for residents and practicing radiologists. I am finished with residency and fellowship and it is a handy reference book! (2nd edition)

Summary: best radiologic "all in one"-book ever written
Review: This is a book with so many hints, mnemonics and interesting information that it is even fun to read it. it gives you a short but important overview about all subspecialities of radilogy. A must for all residents in radiology.

Rating:
Summary: Excellent.
Review: This is a well-written and up-to-date general text suitable for junior radiology residents and also for seniors reviewing for board examinations. The MSK sections by Dr. Helms alone are worth the price

Rating:
Summary: Excellent First Read
Review: This is an excellent introductory text book in radiology. It contains excellent images and covers the key fundamentals in radiology. It would be ideal for the PGY1 or PGY2 resident to read through to gain familarity in radiology before moving on to the major reference texts. Very readable book that does not overwhelm the junior resident with needless minutia.

Rating:
Summary: Fundamental of Diagnostic Radiology
Review: This is the single excellent book for Radiology Residents and General Radiologists. Seperate sections on US and NM are the best parts of this book. CT Scan and MRI are dispersed with the General Radiology. If the authors create seperate sections of CT and MRI like US and NM in the next edition, the book will become the only perfect book in General Radiology. This book contains treasure of knowledge for the Radiology residents and racticing General Radiologists.
