Customer Reviews

Too superficial and disorganized
This is one of the Requisite series that is not up to par. The book is too brief and this really shows when reading the text, which is abrupt to the extreme. This makes for a very tedious read, and you often have to reread the same paragraph multiple times to figure out the point. There is also a noticable paucity of pictures (big no-no in radiology), and the illustrations provided are of poor quality. I recommend you physically pick up this book and browse thru it before plunking down your hard-earned cash. Addition to review: I recommend checking out Donnelly's Fundamentals of Pediatric Radiology. It's smaller and cheaper, well-written, and much better in terms of content and practical facts for pediatric radiology.

Essential reading for radiology residents
As I complete my radiology residency nothing has been more instrumental than the Requisites Series. I consider the collection of books as essential reading for radiology residents.
