Product Description
This richly illustrated and superbly organized text/atlas is the first volume of the new Diagnostic and Surgical Imaging Anatomy series produced by the innovative medical information systems provider Amirsys®. Written by the preeminent authorities in each radiologic subspecialty, these volumes will give radiologists a thorough understanding of the detailed anatomy that underlies contemporary imaging. Each volume features over 2,500 high-resolution 3T MRI and multidetector row CT images in many planes, combined with over 300 correlative full-color anatomic drawings that show human anatomy in the projections radiologists use. Succinct, bulleted text accompanying the images identifies the clinical and pathologic entities in each anatomic area.

Just what I needed! July 28, 2006

At last a text with up to date radiological anatomy of the head and neck. We all know that this is potentially the most challenging area to interpret and none of the standard texts to date are equal to demonstrating the level of exquisite detail obtained by modern imaging techniques. The radiological images and the illustrative drawings are excellent and the organization correlates well with the problems likely to be found in radiological practice.
The ideal book for a practicing radiologist, resident, fellow or surgeon. November 8, 2006

This book is exceptional. The cross-sectional CT, MR, and volume rendered images are great! Structures are clearly, but unobtrusively labeled. Probably the best quality of this book is its repetitive nature. The reader is presented with multiple similar (though not identical) images of the same structure from different vantage points, throughout the book- quite helpful when one tries to integrate 2 dimensional data into a 3D frame of reference. I'm glad that I bought it and I would do so again. I believe in full disclosure- the only slight disadvantage is the cost, which is fairly pricey- but I believe it was DEFINITELY worth it. While Netter's work can never be duplicated, this book surpasses what a radiologist can glean from a basic anatomy book.

Best Buy. Genau die Praesentation der Radiologische Anatomie, die man am Monitor braucht. Die Qualitaet der Bilder: superb. Besser organisiert als vergleichbare Buecher (z. B.: Anatomy in Diagnostic Imaging von Fleckenstein), damit wird die radiologische (Neuro - ) Anatomie lernbar / verstehbar. Prometheus und Sobotta sind ab sofort für den Radiologen nur noch zweite und dritte Wahl, das Nachschlagen dort dauert einfach zu lange und die benoetigte Information ist fast immer nicht so, wie man Sie braucht. Amirsys ist vollstaendig, der Aufbau des Buches ist zeitsparend organisiert, und gerade für den radiologischen Anfaenger geht der Weg zur Diagnose über die Anatomie. Also: Bitte Kaufen, Lernen, Anwenden. Danke. - - - - - This beautifully arranged textbook with its cutting-edge imaging, featuring multidetector row CT and 3T MRI sure is going to be your fully comprehensive insurance in your clinical / radiological allday-life. Exactly the kind of useful key-images you need to have, every area of the brain is shown in its full depth - without being boring or being out of all reason. The very fact that the section on the Cranial Nerves alone takes 88 beautifully illustrated pages with superior quality MRT / CT imaging, reveals how much in-depth-information you get. Nevertheless, the book is concisely arranged. The section on Myelography could be more pictured and precise, if you are asking for the few mistakes. So please: Buy, Read, Apply. Thank You.
The best imaging anatomy texts - bar none! September 22, 2007

This series of anatomy texts has no peer. Each section outlines the key facts, presents superbly executed graphics in explanation, then proceeds to meticulously demonstrate the fine details and subtleties of imaging anatomy using well-labelled and captioned images from every imaging modality ---from plain radiographs through ultrasound, CT, MR, scintigraphy, and even PET.
Admittedly the three volumes will set you back nearly a $1,000 if you get the e-book option (very worthwhile to avoid lugging the set back and forth from home to work), but nothing else comes close to such completeness and quality.
excellent book for doctor for head and neck October 12, 2008

A doctor who practices a medicine for head and neck, oral and maxillofacial region would be encouraged to have and read this book for better care of patients
