Activities include image identification, anatomy identification and labeling, definitions, transducer selection and manipulation exercises, sonographic techniques, positioning exercises, critical thinking exercises, and case reviews.

A thorough review of general mathematics and its applications in radiography as well as a handy reference for basic formulas and calculations used by radiographers. This book starts with basic mathematics principles and moves on to present the reader with the calculations required to produce high quality radiographic images and practice problems which aid in the understanding of these calculations. Areas discussed include mAs conversions, inverse square law, radiographic density and contrast, screens and grid ratios, grid conversions, geometric and magnification unsharpness, and graphs and conversions between conventional and systems international (SI) units of radiation dosimetry.

The Revised Third Edition is now updated to reflect the new 2005 emergency cardiac care guidelines. It continues to build on the qualities that made previous editions of the book so well received by ECG students and practitioners. The book has been redesigned and restructured to complement the order in which students learn specific skills: ECG components are presented first, followed by information on how to interpret ECGs to arrive at a diagnosis. More complex material follows basic skills, with advanced sections at the end.

This pocketbook describes the range of common radiological problems likely to be encountered by medical staff who have to interpret X-Rays that can be of good to poor definition. The examples are all accompanied by simple line diagrams.

Presenting ultrasound pathology from a clinical perspective, this unique resource discusses various pathologies that may be related to a patient's symptoms and features illustrations with ultrasound scans that demonstrate each pathology.

A new summary of findings follows each major discussion of common pathologies and is presented in an easy-to-read table. Chapter outlines, goals, objectives, Radiographer Notes - helpful suggestions on how to produce optimal radiographs of a specific organ system - and end-of-chapter questions help readers understand concepts and assess their comprehension.

• High-quality radiographs and images from other modalities are reproduced on glossy paper, providing the best possible demonstration of the radiographic appearance of different diseases and injuries.
• Comprehensive coverage helps readers develop a true understanding of disease processes and their radiographic appearance, including information essential for further required courses in radiographic pathology.
• Pathology of various body systems is organized in separate chapters, each broken down into an initial discussion of general physiology followed by various pathologic conditions and their radiographic appearance and treatment.
• Ifmultiple imaging modalities can be used, the best initial procedure is indicated, as well as the sequence in which varying imaging studies should be performed.
• Study and review tools such as objectives, goals, and end-of-chapter questions with answers at the back of the book help readers know what they should learn from each chapter and provide the opportunity to review concepts.
• Radiographers Notes in every chapter provide helpful suggestions for producing optimal radiographs for each organ system, plus patient management techniques.

This study guide contains very little didactic material and is designed to be used with the 1994 edition of the author's textbook on Computed Tomography. The book is composed of topic outlines, key word lists, and study exercises. Answers are provided for all true/false and multiple choice questions. The purpose of this guide is to review the subject matter in the textbook, provide a self-assessment, ensure mastery of the content, and provide practice in answering multiple choice questions. The book meets the author's objectives but has shortcomings. This book is written for the radiologic technologist desiring certification in computed tomography. The level and subject matter covered is appropriate for this audience. The author is a registered radiologic technologist and demonstrates a wide experience with and knowledge of CT. Illustrations in the book consist of labeled clinical CT images, allowing the student to identify anatomical detail. These are well done and very adequate for the purpose. The table of contents, index, and overall presentation of the book are very satisfactory. This book is based on a good concept -- a comprehensive review and study guide covering technical and clinical aspects of CT. It is well laid out and covers the material well. The usefulness of this book, however, is compromised because of numerous errors. Readers must be cautioned that some of the answers given in the book are incorrect.
