Chest X-Ray Made Easy
This is a fairly basic book about CXRs, that can help you review the most important abnormal CXR findings. Appropriate for non-radiology interns/residents. I'm in internal medicine and bought this book to refresh my memory about the basics of the CXR.
The book is organized into 11 chapters:
1. How to look at a chest X-ray
2. Localizing lesions
3. The CT scan
4. The white lung field
5. The black lung field
6. The abnormal hilum
7. The abnormal heart shadow
8. The widened mediastinum
9. Abnormal ribs
10. Abnormal soft tissues
11. The hidden abnormality
Pros:
The book provides systematic teaching of CXR interpretation. The bullet-point style is very helpful for learning and reviewing.
A good supplement to this book is >100 Chest X-ray problems< by the same authors.
Cons:
Overall the picture quality is decent, but sometimes the pictures are a little bit too small to see the abnormalities clearly.
There are also a few CT scans, but not enough.
This book is very basic. You will want to look for a more in-depth book afterwards.
This book is overpriced. It is small (fits into a coat pocket) and has only 169 pages.
Would I buy it again? Yes, this book served my purposes of getting a quick and dirty refresher in CXR interpretation with lots of CXR examples.

CT Scan in Abdominal Emergency Surgery (Hot Topics in Acute Care Surgery and Trauma)
This book focuses on the diagnostic impact of CT scans in severe abdominal trauma and in non-traumatic acute abdomen, the two clinical entities that constitute the main reasons for referrals for this imaging technique from the intensive care unit. The concept behind it is that emergency surgeons and physicians not only need the clinical knowledge to manage the different pathological conditions, but that they must also have a full understanding of diagnostic imaging modalities.
To this end, each chapter includes a description of a specific acute abdominal disorder. In addition to the clinical presentation and the diagnosis and management guidelines, there is a special focus on imaging studies with clear and concise descriptions, high-quality images and the evolution grading scale to aid interpretation.
This easy-to-read book is an ideal source of practical information for acute care surgeons, radiologists and for all the members of the emergency team.
