It's good. by S. Yang 5 Stars
June 08, 2007
I've been looking for such a book both in USA and China for a long time, and now I find it. It's good for integrating the differentiate diagnosis. However, if there are more new MR techniques (DTI,PWI,etc.), it will be better.

I recommend this book for anybody studying for the Orals and especially CAQ. Very helpful.

The best of the best "dial-a- yield" neuroimaging guide by Christopher Green MD (New Baltimore, MI United States) 5 Stars
January 13, 2004
The advantage of the graded approach, and the extraction in the text descriptions of key substantive points is excellent. Emphasis is on the findings, less on the academic differentials. Perfect to study along with detailed texts. The keys to the "Requisites" first edition is awesome: but anyone know where one can buy, beg, borrow, or steal a key to the Second edition of "Requisites"?
