Useful for new graduates and those who have got rusty. A comprehensive and detailed textbook to aid in the interpretation of radiographs, ultrasonographic images and more. The pictures of normal radiographic anatomy are comprehensive but a bit small to pick up all features. Also, does not account for differences in exposure and positioning. Small animal joints are all covered in one chapter, where expanding this might have been helpful.
Highly recommended. April 26, 2009

If you have any interest in veterinary radiology whatsoever, get this book. I refered to it quite a bit throughout vet school, and still use it today. Well worth buying. Excellent reference.
great pictures April 10, 2009
