Used Ovel in conjunction with Edelman and Lange to study for SPI, Abdomen, and OB/GYN. Passed all three on first attempt. The QR code on the inside of the book leads to quizzes for each category in multiple formats that can be taken on a mobile device which was very useful. The book also has quizzes at the end of each chapter as well as cumulative tests for all three categories which was also beneficial. My advice: Study multiple sources for each registry exam, don't just study one source. :)
It's easy to read, use, and understand but I would like it more if it had more pictures and diagrams. I'm more of a visual learner. It's almost too simple and I'm afraid it's not enough information. I will be taking both my Abdominal and OB/GYN boards next week and I'll let you know if I passed and if I felt prepared. I already passed the physics 3 years ago and I didn't use this book for that so I can't comment or its usefulness in that category.
Great second addition. I have only found one error in an end chapter assessment question. Minor hiccup. Layout is similar to the first addition. Questions are very similar to registry questions. The breakdown of variants, pathologies are nicely charted. Well worth the money. Images are clear and better than the first addition. Vocabulary in the beginning of every chapter for easy review.
This book was great at narrowing down what you need to study for. I used this in conjunction with the online resources in conjunction with it and the xzone test at Edelman's for my ARRT exam.
So far it had helped, especially in physics keeps it simple. Good refresher on physics and instrumentation. I recommend it if it's been a while since you studied physics
Very concise. Covered all relevant course materials. The Practice exams were a great plus. I recommend this to anyone who will be doing ARDMS exams
