Good bood, but don't buy new version if you have old one
This book is a good review for the radiology boards. That being said, if you have the older version already, don't bother to buy the new version. I went through the book, and there were approximately 4 new/different cases throughout the whole book as compared to the original version. The author did update many pics, even in the cases that she re-used, but I didn't think it was worth buying it again. Hope this helps.
