Product Description
This complete foundational text and reference covers the core curriculum for radiography students with vivid illustrations and thoroughly updated content. In the 4th edition of this highly-respected text, content is updated and modified to convey the pathology knowledge radiographers need at the appropriate comprehension level for better understanding. The book covers all of the essential information radiography students need, including disease processes, their radiographic appearance, and their treatment.
- Radiographers Notes in every chapter provide helpful suggestions for producing optimal radiographs for each organ system and teach students to deal effectively with varying patient needs.
- Thorough coverage of alternative imaging modalities encourages readers to think about other imaging modalities that may be needed to ensure proper diagnosis.
- Summary of diseases, their locations, their radiographic appearance, and treatment tables provide a review tool for students and a quick reference guide for practitioners.
- Treatment sections provide useful background on certain treatment and prognosis information for a more thorough understanding of pathology.
- Organized by body systems, information is easily located and convenient for studying one area at a time in a logical sequence.
- Written for radiographers, the text provides the most up-to-date, logically organized presentation of radiographic pathology available.
- Enhanced imaging appearances include multiple modalities such as SPECT, PET, CT, MR, ultrasound, and fusion.
- Now covers the pathology of hepatitis variations, SARS, anthrax, and Marfan's syndrome for more comprehensive information.
- An expanded discussion of how CT and MR are used to diagnose pathological processes helps students understand the benefits of using these scans.
- New and updated radiograph images of the newly added pathologies.
- More images for alternative modalities, including nuclear, ultrasound, PET, CT, and vascular imaging.

 Falling apart June 9, 2009

I have only had this book for 6 days and it has already started coming apart. When I mentioned it in class about 10 other students laughed and held their books up to show the pages falling out. I hope this problem is fixed soon, because I saw another review that mentioned the same problem. Have also noted many typos in the answer key for the workbook and am only on chapter 2.

Tired RAD Student (Mi, USA)
I have had this book for a week and it is falling apart. It is cheaply put together.
The information in the book is alright, not the best presentation of information.
 Thank you September 3, 2007

"Comprehensive Radiographic Pathology" is a very good text which I used for studying for the national registry exam. I also looked over, "The Ultimate Study Guide for the Registry Examination in Radiography." These had key questions that showed me what to know.

This book is a valuable educational tool. It has the information to assist the technologist in recognizing what they see, or in planning the exam to find suspected pathology.
