Radiologic Physics March 8, 2007

This thin book is packed with high yield information and plenty of questions. This is a good adjunct to physics lectures and the recalls; written by one of the authorities in the field. Huda contains less math, numbers, and questions in comparison to this book. You have to get the information somehow and this is one way to do it. I would not recommend using this text alone without another source of education, it is a review book with prepatory questions for the Physics boards.
Adequate book as an outline for board preparation October 27, 2005

The simplistic presentation in a bullet format is presented in this book in a clear concise format. Augmented with a CD ROM containing Power Point Slides of key concepts this book is useful to get the BASIC framework for learning. Some areas where it is not as good are Mammography, MRI and Fluoroscopy. The questions are challenging and useful but not to the level of difficulty of the ABR's Physics examination. The Powerpoint slides are limited since there is no cross reference to them in the textbook.
How would I recommend using this book? As a first year, I would recommend reading the book cover to cover. Then add to that by using Huda and Bushberg to solidify your knowledge base. The pace of the book realistically speaking takes about 1-1.5 hours to read the chapter and answer the questions without looking back. It takes about 2 weeks to cover the material (in case you are trying to pace yourself).
Overall, it is a worthwhile read and is more clear than Huda. However, I felt it was complementary to Huda and not an all inclusive source for material to pass.
