 Essential book for radiology residents December 20, 2008
Eagle Vision (Southeastern United States)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the 3rd edition to the already classic atlas of Thomas Pope's collection of Aunt Minnie's.
The book is organized into chapters by subspecialty: Interventional, Brain, Head and Neck, Spine, Thoracic, GI, GU, Pediatrics, Ultrasound, Cardiac, Nuclear Medicine, Breast Imaging and Musculoskeletal System. Each subject is presented by selected images, followed by a short history. You can 'take the case' by just looking at images and/or history as a method of doing 'unknowns' to prepare for end of rotation oral exams or practicing for the oral boards. Many subjects have even appeared on the annual inservice exams.
Following each unknown is a summary of the imaging findings, the diagnosis, discussion and Aunt Minnie's "Pearls". The book is well written and it has high quality images.
What separates this book from previous editions is the online access to the entire book in electronic format (text and images).

This is an essential book for preparation for the boards, as well as general knowledge of the practicing radiologist. No other book summarizes many of the pathognomonic imaging findings like this text.
Highly recommend this book.

This book is an excellent collection of cases that can be classified as "Aunt Minnies", i.e. cases that have a specific diagnosis and you probably won't know what they are, unless you've seen them before. Therefore this book is invaluable for all radiology residents and especially for the oral boards. If there is one book you need to reveiw for the boards, this is it. The book has a concise text of imaging findings and relevent conceptual material for each case, which adds to the usefullness of the book.
