Good selection of cases

This book has a good selection of pediatric cases followed by description and discussion. I recommend this one just like all the others from this collection (Case review). Just read it when you get some free time to spare.

Pony up and buy the book

Sure this book is getting some flack from reviews and my fellow collegues, but if you want some more cases to review for Peds oral boards, this has been a good place to go after reading Donnelly (I've learned some new things from the cases). And let's face it, there are not that many Radiology Peds review books. The questions take a little getting use to. Although some of the questions may not be directly related to the case at hand, most appeared relavant: either pearls or related to the topic (aka pimp questions). One strength to the book was that good differentials were given. As with the other case review books, it would be nice to have a sentence or two describing the findings in the images, since the findings are not always apparent (to me) and would be helpful for studying for the descriptive component for oral boards.

This IS a reasonable book

This book provides a good review of pediatric radiology. The cases are appropriate and discussed well (a couple typos don't bother me too much), and the images may be on the small side but are definitely diagnostic. Emphasis on pathophysiology was a real strength. I'm not entirely sure what the controversy is about. It's actually an improvement not to be handed the diagnoses in the questions.
