Part of the successful Recall Series, Radiology Recall is ideal for medical students and interns reviewing radiology on rotations. It follows an interactive question-and-answer format that allows readers to test and reinforce their recall of key concepts. Icons throughout the text flag Key Concepts and Mnemonic Devices. The book is organized by organ system and extensively illustrated with over 400 images.

This Second Edition features a new chapter on nuclear medicine and major updates on CT, PET, and interventional radiology. The chapters on physics and vascular imaging have been extensively revised.
