I used this book to study for my boards exam for CT certification. Doing everything self-guided (as opposed to going to school) was very stressful, but this book is simply written yet very thorough. When it came time for the boards exam I was super stressed; as the test date approached I was using this text to really cram. I did have a little help from a sample bottle of NueroNRG â Mental Focus and Energy Supplement - I included the link for anyone who might need a little help staying focused and clear-headed. I was cool as a cucumber when I sat for my exam, and passed by a very comfortable margin. This text was a great resource and I highly recommend it to anyone working towards a CT certification.
I began cross training to CT just over a year ago....I took my test on July 30th and passed with a higher score than I thought I would. I utilized this book, the DeMaio book and the pocket atlas books for cross sectional anatomy. I highly recommend these books to prepare for the exam, it's all you need.
This is a good solid text for new CT techs and veteran techs to use as a quick review. Plenty of pictures that help with understanding the text although they're all in black and white which is a negative thing to me. The chapters are well organized and informative. The biggest negative aspect of this book is that there is no chapter that reviews artifacts and their methods of correction which is a big part of the CT registry. Still a solid text that could use improvement but definitely not a waste of money.-Jerell Jones. R.T.(R)(CT)(MR)
Great book. It breaks down all the categories you need to know very well. I had to buy this for my CT school, and it was the only book we had to buy since it's all inclusive! When you only need one book for a year... that's always a plus. Do the questions in the back after each chapter! I will say, though, that you'll most likely want a dedicated review book for your boards to study from along with this. I recommend Mosby's Exam Review.
There are several review books on the market and this one is a must have. I suggest this book to my didactic CT students and require it of my CT clinical students. If you think you might sit for the ARRT CT registry, this is a no brainer. Complete with a rich test bank. Big thumbs up from me.
I have been using this textbook to help study. It's format is perfect because it matching up with the Content Outline for ARRT exam.It is easy to follow, and hoping to follow up this review by the end of the year with my test results! Wish me luck.
would not highly recommend this book for the registry, it has two definitions for each term which can often be confusing in fully understanding the concepts. Seeking a study guide to accompany.Index and glossary are terrible! You must remember where you saw the info in the chapters, index does not provide the basic key words to find the info. This book alone will not help you pass the registry.
After spending a lot of money on several well known on-line courses, I decided to make the investment in this text and the accompanying text book. What a wise decision I made! I have found that the on-line courses are expensive and lack scholarly support/ references to the material presented. The material in these textbooks is concise, consistent and reliable. I highly recommend that you spend your hard-earned dollars here and forget about the on-line courses.
