Very informative book. Some sections provide more info than needed for registry. Gave 3 stars because does not provide access to any power point notes which would be great for quick reviews of the lengthy chapters. As much as book cost there should be access to pp slides b/c information is a bit overwhelming for CT students trying to pass the registry. But good info, would use as a reference book for registry not as a direct study tool.

This book provides a lot of very good information pertinent to the Computed Tomography field. Good information especially for students wanting to study for the CT registry. Well laid out.

Good condition

great deal
