Shaya MR, Gragnaniello C, Nader R. Neurosurgery Practice Questions and Answers. 2nd ed. Thieme; 2016; 256 pp; 150 ill; $59.99
In this 256-page, softcover publication, there are 805 multiple choice questions, followed by the answers to each question. There are a considerable number of imaging studies, each followed by a question that requires an understanding of the imaging/diagnosis and the surgical possibilies associated with each. Actually, the questions pose interesting dilemmas in choosing the correct answer. Of course, many questions involve issues that do not directly touch on neuroradiology, but it is surprising how many do. This book is clearly written for and recommended for housestaff in neurosurgery; however, if you know someone who has the book, try testing yourself. These brief questions are significantly educational.
