It clearly presents management recommendations for everyday malignancies, and then follows that up with a three to four line summary of each of the pivotal papers. Its only weakness is a lack of critical appraisal of the evidence it cites, but then again, if you only rely on this handbook and don't ...             Musculoskeletal MRI8 reviews Phoebe A.

Lippincott, 1995 Great introductory read This is a very readable book on neuroimaging. Nicely divided into sections eg- trauma, tumor, head and neck, etc. Good quality images. Short bulleted text with some key facts on the opposite page makes for a quick read. Would be very good for a junior resident to go through early in their training to get acquainted with some of the more common diseases.
