A complete waste of money by Expecting mom (New York) 1 Stars
November 28, 2008
I am a CT tech in the ER at Bellevue Hospital in NYC. When i bought this book, i was new to scanning so I didn't know any better. This book has random pictures of brain pathology with very brief explanations of what you are looking at - in NO PATICULAR ORDER! Some pictures are of contrast studies, some are non-contrast, and others simply do no say - all mixed together! I don't know who the winner is who wrote that this book helped him when working without an MD on location, b/c I wouldn't want him scanning me if this was his only aide in detecting acute pathology! a complete waste of money, and I'm angered now that I was fooled into thinking it would help me learn. complete garbage!

CT...GET AHEAD by Ed Dow (Houston, Texas) 5 Stars
February 11, 2000
I recently returned to Emergency Medicine after 15 years of Family Practice and was faced with the need to read head CT's when the radiologist was not available. This book will keep you from sending anyone home that needs to see a neurosurgeon. I found the size, format and info all precisely what I needed.One day the radiologist, walking by, noticed me reading it and reminded me to put it back in his bookcase before I left. He thought it was his copy!
