Gunderman R. Essential Radiology: Clinical Presentation, Pathophysiology, Imaging. 3rd Ed. Thieme; 2014; 344 pgs.; 607 illustrations; $69.99.
Written primarily with medical students in mind, but also for those in allied fields who may wish to have a survey of the field of radiology, Essential Radiology: Clinical Presentation, Pathophysiology, Imaging accomplishes that goal. It cuts a broad sweep across radiology, covering all systems with a truncated atlas of cross-sectional anatomy and a general chapter on the introduction to radiology. For those associated with medical schools where radiology is a required course for medical students, this book could serve as required reading. It is too superficial for residents-in-training.
