I wish I had this as a resident. I'm a few years out and wanted a single-source for reference and overview of all the basics. Primer never seemed as user friendly and had no images. It also contained some black pearls. This book is up to date and very well-organized with large print and high quality images.The idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are given a page each, with corresponding path diagram. This organization makes them easy to find and remember. The section on pulmonary hypertension is up to date and well-organized.The highlight of the GI section is the pancreas content, which is clear and detailed (contains groove pancreatitis, common channel, etc).The GU section starts with a very clear diagram of the fascia, and goes on to excellent presentations of renal and adrenal disease, with a full page on Bosniak. There are diagrams of the urethra, prostate, etc., that are definitely better than most books. Good images of prostate MRI are provided. The zones of the uterus and fibroid terminology are well done.Neuro contains diagrams of herniations, cisterns, vasculary territories, etc. , as well as an approach to a focal brain lesion. There is a flow diagram for posterior fossa mass in peds and adult, which is helpful. Large, high quality images as always. Vascular malformations are up to date. Head and neck gets a surprisingly detailed treatment, with both MR/CT images and corresponding drawing/diagram provided.In the MSK section, you can actually see the detail on the plain films. Good approach to bone lesions. LOTS of images. Lisfranc, midfoot, and hindfoot trauma is definitely better than a lot of books, and much better than you'd expect from a single volume like this. Ligament and tendon anatomy provided.
