Teaching Atlas of Interventional Radiology: Non-vascular Interventional Procedures (Teaching Atlas) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Together with the book by Karim Valji (Vascular and interventional radiology, ISBN 0721670032) this book forms a formidable addition to any prospective interventionalist's library. The book essentially forms two parts. An introduction describing in a review format some common fields of interventional radiology such as lower extremity arterial disease, but also enlightens the user on the highly busy part of interventional radiology - that related to dialysis vascular access and its importance for the dialysist and (no lesse important) for the patient with a dialysis access.The second part of the book describes case stories with appropriate images and narrative content. A few areas seem a little different from modern approach with almost no vascular CT or even mention of multi-detector vascular CT, an important emergent technique. Also - albeit this may be from my lack of familiarity with American settings - a curious case of a patient with a brain abscess is related and the sequelae of that is never really mentioned.In general the book is informative, well written, clear and with a lot of interesting and highly educational examples.

Vascular & Interventional Radiography: A Comprehensive Text & Examination Review Book Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book provided an adaquate overview of interventional radiology equipment and procedures. However, the book was chalk full of spelling, grammar, and punctuational errors. In some places the editing was so poor that I had to reread information 2 or 3 times to figure out what the author was trying to communicate. It does not offer explanations for all the answers in the review section. For me, the answers I disagreed with most were answers that had no explanation given. Also, some information in this book directly conflicted with information given in another section of the same book. Most of the drawings lacked detail. Having already sat for my ARRT (VI) exam, on the job experience was far greater a reference to draw from than was this book. I regret paying the steep price tag. Wait for Appleton & Lange to put out an ARRT (VI) review book.

Cardiac Catheterization and Coronary Intervention (Oxford Specialist Handbooks in Cardiology) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a lay person, I was hoping for more of a generalized explanation that would be useful to persons facing cardiac catheterization and/or intervention.If that is your purpose, this is the wrong book for you.It appears to contain essential medical information of which practitioners should be aware.On the other hand, if I am facing such a procedure, I don't want it done by a cardiologist who still needs this book for reference.That being said, the content of the book was excellent.
