Best radiology book on the market, great for nat'l boards,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essentials of Skeletal Radiology 2ND Ed (2 Vol. Set) (Hardcover)
I graduated chiropractic school this year. I used this book in school and found this it to be filled with lots of info on soft and hard tissue pathology. The radiographs are excellent in this book. Every condition from spinal bifida occulta to fibrous dysplasia is described with the utmost detail. Every chapter has a helpful summary that summarizes all the important points of each condition. I also used this book to help me study for Part II, III and IV of the National Boards. However, if you really want a great book to study for the national boards do what my study group and I did, get the following:National Board of Chiropractic Part II Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers by Patrick Leonardi National Board of Chiropractic Part III Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Patrick Leonardi National Board of Chiropractic Part IV Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers (Volume 1) and (Volume 2) The questions in these last 4 study guides are right on with the kind of questions encountered on the National Boards. These 5 books contributed greatly to helping my study group and I pass the boards. For example the Part IV Study Guide had great sections on chiropractic technique, clinical impression and x-ray diagnosis. It presented the questions just like on the exam. These 5 books are must buys.

Yochum & Rowe Essentials,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essentials of Skeletal Radiology 2ND Ed (2 Vol. Set) (Hardcover)
An essential text for all chiropractic and medical students as well as practicing doctors. Useful write-ups on hundreds of conditions. Wonderful coverage of arthritides and tumors. Huge section on normals and a small section on positioning. The only place it's lacking is in chest and abdomen, and that's because it's a book on skeletal radiology. I couldn't do without it.

Happily, The Material Is Also Very Readable And Should Serve As An Excellent Textbook,
By Aung Htun - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Essentials of Skeletal Radiology (Hardcover)
"Although there are a number of excellent books dealing with skeletal radiology, the addition of these volumes to the literature is more than welcome.The unique format and the approach taken by Drs. Yochum and Rowe should make this book particularly valuable as a reference source. HAPPILY, THE MATERIAL IS ALSO VERY READABLE AND SHOULD SERVE AS AN EXCELLENT TEXTBOOK. As an educator I am especially pleased to have the chapter dealing with principles of radiological interpretation included since this material in detail is not found elsewhere....." [from the book of the foreword by Joseph W. Howe, D.C., D.A.C.B.R., F.I.C.C., Professor and Chairman, Radiology Department, Los Angeles College of Chiropractic] 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful

This is the one!,
By John T. Thornhill - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Essentials of Skeletal Radiology (Hardcover)
An exhaustive text on skeletal radiology. Though my experience is limited, it would certainly seem that if its not in here we don't know about it yet...perhaps thats too great a generalization but this text will definitely prove beneficial beyond the classroom as many doctors can attest.
