Description
The Practical Imaging Series is a set of interactive radiology ebooks available for tablets.
These interactive ebooks have wide appeal because they offer an organized framework to learn radiology by focusing on a practical approach and using extensive illustrative examples, movie clips, and clinical photographs.
The Practical Imaging Series is written to be assessable to trainees in Diagnostic Radiology, yet applicable even to practicing radiologists. Although a baseline understanding of medical imaging is assumed, these ebooks keep jargon to a minimum so as to be useful to ALL clinicians seeking an approachable primer on the topic.
The Practical Pediatric Cardiac Imaging ebook focuses on:
-An approach to congenital heart disease that goes beyond x-rays, also using CT, MR, angio, and echo
Understanding CHD in a modern framework, based on anatomy and pathophysiology
-A brief discussion of aortic arch anomalies
-A discussion of each major congenital heart lesion, including its clinical and imaging manifestations
-A review of other major pediatric cardiac abnormalities, including the differential diagnosis of CHF in children
Reviews
Very clear discussion of a difficult topic
5By krmoore42I have always found it difficult to remember the salient features of the many important congenital heart lesions. In this day of prenatal echocardiography, one rarely sees the classic radiography findings of untreated CHD. Rather, a modern treatment of these disorders before and especially after surgery, with cross sectional imaging correlation, was long overdue. Not only is Dr Baskin's third book equally multimedia rich compared to its predecessors, it is fun to read in an intuitive way that keeps the pages turning long after you planned to go to bed. Highly recommended.Practical Imaging iBooks continue to impress
5By edeer78This pediatric cardiac imaging iBook breaks down complex congenital cardiac disease into an easy, structured format that helps solidify concepts. The graphics are excellent and serve to reinforce the concepts in a way that cannot be obtained from traditional textbooks. As a resident, this book has helped immensely in my understanding of pediatric cardiac anomalies. I recommend this iBook to anyone who is interested in this topic, regardless of level of training.Third book in series does not disappoint
