The book itself has a lot of good information. But if you were ordering it for the CME credits, don't they expired over a year ago. I think they should tell you that in the description. It was a big waste of my time.

Dear Sir / Madam: I am looking for any text book about RADIOGRAPHIC CRITIQUE except from McQuillen-Martensen and the best Medical Dictionary. Thank you for sending my previous orders. I am now a Registered Canadian Medical Radiologic Technologist in Canada after successfully passing the CAMRT Exams. Thank you once again. Sincerely, Janette P. Lee

Good overview with details and case descriptions by M. Chesebro (Huntsville, AL United States)

This book is a good reference as well as learning tool. It includes many glossy prints of actual bone density scans with descriptions and instructions for interpretation. It has a good section on identifying artifacts and evaluating the adequacy of the scans. There's not much description of secondary causes of osteoporosis but that information can be obtained elsewhere. In all, a good learning and reference book, esp. for physicians.

This is the single most important resourse that any physician performing DEXA scans should have in his or her library. It is a reference used frequently and is a great review of the state of the art of bone density. Two copies are useful, if the first is misplaced. A must read for physicians starting the bone densitometry business.
