Great5
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)

website warning1
This review is of the website only. The website is falsely advertised.

Most of what is described in the product description still does not exist 2 years after publication. The IMAGE BANK does exist and is downloadable. The INTERACTIVE TEST BANK is still "coming soon." The FULLY SEARCHABLE ANATOMY LIBRARY does not exist but takes you back to the image bank. The CONTINUOUSLY UPDATED IMAGING CASES is a collection of page proofs from a number of the publisher's texts, in no order or organization, and is useless. The publishers claim they update the site monthly with articles but there is no such section. You cannot see this website until you have purchased the book.

In short - they wrote a good book, had great web plans, advertised those plans widely, failed to realize those plans, and now falsely advertise.

Concise but not enough for residency.4
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.
