BOOK REVIEW – REVIEW OF RADIOLOGY
The Book Review of Radiology written by Sumer Kumar Sethi is a synopsis of what Post-graduate medical students require in Radiology. Although it was intended for Post-graduate students preparing for medical admission tests of All India and the different states, I find this book also useful to other post-graduate students from other parts of the world especially in the developing world like Africa.
The book is structured into four main sections which deals with all aspects of Radiology and Radiotheraphy. It is presented in an outline format for easy understanding and multiple choice questions and answers are also provided to assess students understanding and aid memory.
The book is well written and comprehensive and will greatly assist all interested in the very important subject of Radiology and Radiotherapy.
Its size is a further advantage because of the short time made available in the curriculum of Medical students.
Finally the book provides a clear, concise and in-depth knowledge of the various radiological procedures, highlighting various imaging techniques that are now the vogue in Medical diagnosis.
