      "Learning Radiology, 3rd edition is a must-have for anyone who will be required to read and interpret common radiologic images. Students benefit from the extensive knowledge and experience of esteemed author Herring and ensure their mastery of the material with additional online content, bonus images, and self-assessment exercises at Student Consult." -SirReadaLot.org, July 2015, Issue #195

      "This is a fabulous introduction to the basics and fundamentals of the various radiology and imaging modalities as well as pattern recognition associated with common and uncommon diagnoses…it is indispensable as a reference and would certainly make for a quick and comprehensive high-yield read prior to an in-service exam or the assumption of on-call responsibilities."

      -Ashwin Rao, MD (Medical College of Georgia at Georgia Regents University) Doody’s Score: 96 - 4 Stars!

      Great book, but can't access online bc didn't come with coupon code
      This is a fantastic book. Usually, all my Elsevier books can be easily accessed from a phone or computer through the inkling app (like when I'm in the clinic or the wards... to quickly look something up)Well, this redeem sticker was never present when I received the book. Sellers do this on purpose sometimes to take advantage of access which is really lame.

      5.0 out of 5 stars The absolute best book for radiology residents!
      Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2017
      Verified Purchase
      I've already had the previous edition of this book and I love it so much that I ordered this new edition too.
      In my opinion this is a must-have for any radiologist resident who needs the basics presented in a practical way, so that it can be readily used in daily work. I have hoarded quite a collection of handbooks, atlases and lengthy textbooks, but this is still the book that I go back to most often. It's full of useful info, presented in a fun and easily-digestible way and it gives you very great tips on how to differentiate between different lesions that look very similar (the hardest thing in practice and the absolute best thing about the whole book).
      The book comes with a code that you can use to register it, and afterwards you can read the whole content online everywhere or read it on your phone on your night-shifts.

      I'm a fourth year medical student who's about to do a radiology rotation. I'm about 11 chapters in and I'm impressed by how clearly they explain the basic principles. There's obviously a lot of images and the quality of the explanations is superb. It's got the basic's and everything is explained clearly and it's definitely geared towards beginners. I also love the online content which has quizzes for every chapter.

      Now a classic radiology book based on Dr William Herring's excellent web site. A must-have concise textbook for all who are new to radiology or those who wish to review the material. It comes with online access to Elsevier's Student Consult. The excellent graphics are accompanied by useful tables, boxes and take home messages. I have enjoyed each of the three editions and used it as a required textbook for my radiology classes.

      I just got this book today but I felt compelled to write a review. As a seasoned nurse studying to be a nurse practitioner, this book will be extraordinarily helpful. The chapters are succinct, writing style easy to follow, and the pictures...!!! So many pictures! I wish all reference books were this great. I would love to have had this book years ago. Thank you, Dr. Herring!

      5.0 out of 5 stars The Best resource to Radiology basics
      Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2019
      Verified Purchase
      Throughout my medical training, I felt the basics were not taught well and it was difficult to find a through easy to understand resource. Look no further. This book is by far the best Radiology Basics resource I have encountered and makes relearning the basics fun. Highly recommended for anyone in Medicine.

      I LOVE this book. Perfect book for a medical student or anyone who, like me, is an international medical graduate (Dominican) and is going to take the USMLE. Very helpful. Helps you build your vocabulary + teaches you the basics.. Whatever you need to know at the time of the exams. I can't express enough how good this book is. Thanks to the authors.

      Realmente muito bom para quem não possui conhecimentos dentro da radiologia e precisa aprender de verdade.

      Infelizmente em algumas páginas há falha na impressão como se a tinta estivesse no fim. Assim alguma páginas estão muito mais claras do que deveriam. Isso só não é mais grave graças a possibilidade de acesso ao student consult.
