The long-awaited 2 nd Edition of Felsons best-selling reference reflects the most recent developments in chest radiology, while retaining the effective, interactive teaching style and humorous approach of the original edition. Its programmed approach presents the radiographic images on left-hand pages and the text on right-hand pages. A flap hides the answers until the reader is ready to compare their analysis to the correct one. Engages the reader in the learning process through active participation, allowing the individual to set his or her own pace. Features CT, MR, and ultrasound images where appropriate. Offers new chapters on Cross-Sectional Imaging Techniques, The Normal Chest Reading Like a Pro, Patterns of Lung Disease, Understanding the Mediastinum, and Cardiovascular Disease.
listen i have to count this otherwise i am super far behind on my pitiful 20 books for the year /o\
useful from a med student perspective with great sequence of information. not personally a big fan of the fill-in-the-blank method of active reading but somehow thought it was effectively done here.
Ojalá hubiera descubierto este libro en la carrera, me parece una muy buena introducción a la radiología torácica: simple, ameno, y con sentido del humor, que tanta falta hace a la hora de enseñar. El formato elegido, con preguntas, frases a rellenar y casos clínicos, me ha recordado al Dubin de electrocardiografía, y es estupendo para afianzar mejor los conceptos que uno va aprendiendo. 9/10.
Quiz format style textbook. Good foundation stuff. Most of the textbook was relatively simple stuff. Still got stuff wrong + missed stuff in the quiz at the end. Oh well.
A must read for all medical student. great introductory text book. The text is written with questions and fill in the blank. Similar to Dubin's Rapid Interpretation of EKG, but for chest imaging
