Customer Reviews

Great text!
A must have reference for emergency clinicians. This text provides a complete pictorial catalog of relevant emergency imaging and the accompanying well written text makes learning straightforward. Whether you are reviewing plain radiographs, CT, MRI or ultrasound this text is for you.
Kudos to Dr. Chris Fox and colleagues for authoring this comprehensive and relevant emergency reference.

Outstanding reference
A great reference for the emergency department. In a field where we are expected to understand and incorporate a multitude of imaging modalities, many of which we must read ourselves, there is a surprising lack of reference material. This book fills that gap.

Must have textbook for emergency physicians
This book is loaded with CT, ultrasound, MRI, and plain radiograph images. It's a great reference book to have in the department. I'd say this is an essential text for both junior and senior emergency residents learning how to read CTs, plain films, and MRIs. It's edited by Chris Fox, one of the most famous people around in emergency ultrasound. This is an outstanding book.
