Review
"Since most pocket books are atlases of normal anatomy, it's nice to see a pocketbook that covers common pathology in a concise manner. Everything from acoustic neuromas to pneumothoraces to rotator cuff tears are covered and are more common in an imaging facility than normal anatomy. This book provides insight into the disease along with useful images depicting the pathology." (Doody's )

Review on CT/MR Atlas
As a 2nd year Radiology resident, this book is a good primer for CT and MRI correlates. It's in no way a substitute for a text or full-series discussion, but to solidify key concepts of common pathology as your reviewing cases initially, it's hard to beat.
Cheap and Introductory...a good buy.

Very good Tool
This is a very good portable resource, offering a review regarding common pathologies. This will help you to identify the meanly characteristics of the diseases. The price is accessible. Good quality images.
