Privacy Overview. This edition includes 70 per cent new illustrations, updated information on nuclear medicine, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance, and expanded coverage of radiobiology, radiation protection, and radiation dosing in adults and children. More than practice questions help the user fully prepare for examinations.

Chapters outline key information and test the reader's understanding with board-type review questions, along with answers and rationale provided. Includes multiple-choice questions. New chapters include those on image quality and dose, digital imaging and PACS, computers and mathematics, and a separate chapter on CT.

Radiology residents gather their medical physics knowledge from many sources, often beginning with their first encounter of a radiologic image. Nye and esteemed contributors incorporates an image-rich, case-based layout conducive to learning challenging physics concepts. The book encompasses physical diagnostic radiology scenarios commonly encountered during residency in a format that fosters learning and is perfect for board preparation.

Seven technology-specific chapters cover fluoroscopy, mammography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, ultrasound imaging, and image processing. Each chapter features 10 succinct case-based topics intended to quickly convey information.

Key Highlights Every chapter starts with a general introduction, followed by case background, images, findings, and a brief explanation of the physical factors underlying the image's creation and displayed contrast Schematics detail important radiation safety topics, such as potential occupational or patient hazards related to fluoroscopic-guided procedures End-of-chapter references provide inspiration for further study Review questions with correct answers at the end of each chapter reinforce key concepts This is a must-have resource for residents prepping for the radiology core exam review and early-career radiologists looking for a robust study guide for radiology certification exam review.

Each chapter offers a concise outline of the information you need to know today. Original diagrams make complex concepts easy to understand and more than multiple-choice questions, with answers and explanations, allow you to test your understanding of the full range of topics.
