Understanding X-Rays: A Plain English Approach

Great resource for beginners. Easy to read and understand. I'd buy it again just to have as a resource.

X Rays

handy book for someone just learning to review xrays. I used this book when I was in NP school. Helpful tool.

AWESOME!

Easy to read, clear to understand, simple to apply. Highly recommend it for anyone that is new to xrays!

Absolutely the best text on practical X-ray analysis

Rarely does one find a medical book that is so easy to comprehend, yet the reader gains immediately-useful knowledge; heretofore such practicality was unknown in radiology.The background information is superbly presented, so that the reader can effortlessly and quickly make his way through the simplified presentation.So delightful is this large-format, profusely illustrated text, that the reader finds it more recreational than didactic, learning all the way.This "plain English"(author's words) approach is THE way to understand X-rays. I wish it were available when I was in training. Highly reccommend!

Simple and Fun!

This book gives a simple overview of some common x-rays and helps to clarify their meanings.... literally in plain English! If you have read Dubin's Rapid Interpretation of EKG's and liked it, then you would love this book. It is set up similarly. It's an easy read and there are tests at the end for review. I highly recommend it!
