great buy September 19, 2009
Satish Singh (GRENADA)
I PURCHASED THIS TEXT BOOK FROM AMAZON. FIRSTLY, THE PRICE WAS SO MUCH CHEAPER COMPARED TO OTHER SITES THAT SELLS IT. I AM A SENIOR RADIOGRAPHER & I FIND THIS BOOK SELF EXPLANATORY ASSISTED WITH LOTS. OF ILLUSTRATIONS. VERY EASY TO COMPREHEND.
I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THIS ITEM TO OTHER BUYERS.
AMAZON WAS VERY HELPFUL , BECAUSE IT ARRIVED TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE ESTIMATED TIME AND THE SHIPPINGFEE TO MY HOME IN GRENADA WAS VERY AFFORDABLE .
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AMAZON.
A Must Have for Techs September 16, 2009

This is by far one of the best books for CT I have ever seen. It gives a very good and concise general overview of CT with info on contrast agents, scanner protocols by slice, and a lot of images detailing normal pathology. The images in this book are laid out so that images are are grouped together on one page showing the same anatomy ranging from normal anatomy to common pathological conditions. They also have a CT slice of anatomy with a drawn picture to the side to better illustrate the anatomy of the slice. This book is worth every penny.
 Very Useful Book May 8, 2009

As I plan to take my CT boards, I find this book is very helpful because it is only CT images. My other anatomy books combine both CT and MR images.
It shows normal anatomy and pathology.
This book was recommended by my CT instructor. I would highly recommend it. Co-workers think it's a great CT anatomy book too.
Amazing value for your money April 14, 2009

Without any doubt this is the best CT Teaching Manual.
Excellent introduction to physical and technical fundamentals of CT, it outlines the basic rules for reading CT examinations, administration of contrast agents, CT angiography and Radiation protection.
It has more than 500 excellent pictures comparing anatomy vs pathology for all body sites. Has front and back cover folding pages with keys to all anatomical structures.
I happened to find this book by chance - now it has become the standard reference book in my department. Five of my colleagues bought it within 3 months of my purchase. And most importantly it is easy on the wallet.

I found this by accident and anybody who is cross-trained into CT and wants to sit for the ARRT registry in CT should have this book. Learned more than any other book I have bought. I have spend over $600 on other recommended books and this is best by far
