great book

This is a thoroughly readable, concise and well written book. It is ideal for radiology residents (a must) and primary care physicians. It is a must.

Good for clinicians. Too limited for radiology people..

I bought it as a first read in chest radiology. Its structure is right and covers most (all for beginners) thoracic radiology areas. However, the picture format is very small to recognize important signs and anatomy. Also, text is targeted solely at clinicians. Radiology residents (and soon to be residents- like myself) should better face a real challenge- like Brant and Helms' Fundamentals of diagnostic radiology.
