Summary: This book gives a synoptic description of the practical details of how to carry out the common procedures in imaging on which a trainee in radiology will be expected to be familiar. It does not attempt to cover rarer techniques beyond the scope of the exam or to show the resulting images. Chapman and Nakielny's Guide to Radiological Procedures has become the classic, concise guide to the common procedures in imaging with which a radiology trainee will be expected to be familiar. Now fully revised and updated in line with current practice, it will also prove invaluable to the wider clinical team that now delivers modern imaging services, including radiographers and radiology nurses, as well as a handy refresher for radiologists at all levels. The highly accessible format has been retained, with every technique described under a set of standard headings, making it ideal for both quick reference and exam preparation. The important topic of 'consent' is reflected in an additional new chapter and the latest key guidelines are referenced throughout. New to this edition is complementary access to the complete, fully searchable eBook , making it even more practical to use than ever before, anytime, anywhere! "Its wipe-clean cover, compact size and reasonable price make this a good value and useful asset in the office and procedure room for practitioners of all levels of expertise. Radiography and nursing staff will appreciate the information regarding room and equipment set-ups while radiologists will find it a useful primer of new and established multi-modality technique." Reviewed by: RAD , Date: May 2014 "This is a great book, which will provide the inexperienced student/member of staff with enough information to be able to appreciate and contribute to the radiological procedures they witness."
