No matter how you look at it , sectional anatomy is a tough subject. As an educator, I have experimented with several different sectional anatomy texts. When all is said and done, Kelley & Petersen's book is the one I ultimately went back to. There are several reasons. One is that is it is complete to point of exhaustion on sectional anatomy. The other books out there are light on material, either in pictures, diagrams, or explanations. Kelley & Peterson is not light. But because of that, it can seem to be more book than necessary. So until something better comes along, this one is it.

This book along with the workbook are just what I need for the CScan exam in August . The book is the best I have seen and is perfect not only for the exam but also for quick reference while at work. I highly recommend it.

I'm using this book for my MRI anatomy class. While I've just broken into this book, so far I'm loving it! The pictures in this book are remarkably high quality, with anatomical diagrams and CT/MRI sectional images included in many planes. The book also uses simple diagrams to show at what level/angle a particular slice in the sectional image displayed (a detail I appreciate). Furthermore, the sectional images are more than adequately labeled, with other anatomy being labeled that is glossed over in other anatomy books I've come across. In other words, it's very detailed! The printed information is sufficient as well. My only gripe is the book is a paperback. While this book is a bit heavy already, I feel it is a little too flimsy as a paperback and I feel the material would be better supported as a hardcover. Besides that, I feel it is a great book!

if you hate reading and like a lot of pictures and diagrams then this is the text book for you. As text books go this one is pretty good.

Very informative. Goes over a lot of the anatomy and applies it to what is seen on MR and CT

I bought this book for a course I had online. It has everything I need to know. I do not have a background in anatomy and this book has what I need to kick start recognition of structures in the human body, it has also a good of information regarding the structures in the body. It has a great amount of images of scans specially CT and MR images, images are crisp and clear as much as the imaging modality allow. The only draw back .. it is heavy book!!

This is a very large and thick text book. Not sure why someone thought it would be a good idea to make it a paper back. I've paid allot of money for my medical text books and enjoy keeping them for future reference. I wish this one had a hard cover instead of a flimsy paper one. This one has been slid in and out of my backpack just a few times and is already showing wear and tear.

I used this textbook for my continuing education credits. It was fantastic and will remain in my library for future reference. For those considering taking the Computed Tomography board exams; this is an awesome review and resource.
