This book is a must have for radiology residents! It is well organized, very high yield and a quick read (only 230 pages)! The chapters are based on anatomy (hand, shoulder, c-spine, knee, etc) and contain high yield check-lists at the beginning of each chapter that include (common sites of injury in adults and kids, where to look when you see something obvious, where to look when you see nothing at all, easily missed fractures, etc). The checklists are a nice feature and provide a quick snapshot of all key points. There are also plenty of images and diagrams and illustrate the main ideas. I highly recommend this book as a reference on your ER rotation, especially if you take call in a major trauma center. I used it everyday during my emergency radiology rotation and will definitely keep it by my side during night float.
Although dramatically different from Lee Rogers' previous encyclopedic 2-volume treatise on fractures, I think this is perhaps the best introduction to the imaging of skeletal trauma extant and I intend to make it the primary text our residents read before going on call.
Great for showing common places bones break and providing the special names of the breaks that you need to know.
Excellent, informative book
