Neuroradiology Companion: Methods, Guidelines, and Imaging Fundamentals

Rating:
Summary: very informative book
Review: This book has helped me with my knowledge of neuroradiology. i like this book very much and the best part of it all are the pictures, which are very clear. i am aldo very happy to report that the author is my uncle.

Rating:
Summary: Great introductory read
Review: This is a short, inexpensive (especailly for neuroradiology) book that I found quite useful. The images are remarkably similar to the ones on the Neurology RITE. And, there is a short section on key facts in bullet form for each common neurological disease described. Additionally, the book even has info on imaging protocols and guidelines. No MR spect, but is otherwise pretty good. Has nearly 550 images!

Summary: Just like in the in-service exam!

Review: This is a very readable book on neuroimaging. Nicely divided into sections eg- trauma, tumor, head and neck, etc. Good quality images. Short bulleted text with some key facts on the opposite page makes for a quick read. Would be very good for a junior resident to go through early in their training to get acquainted with some of the more common diseases. I think it is unlikely that one would be presented with a case at the oral radiology boards that is not found in this text. Still, this is not a substitute for reading a traditional neuroimaging text such as the Mosby Handbook series or the Requistites series sometime during residency.
