Saunders' popular Fundamentals of Radiology series delivers informationessential to residents, staff physicians and medical students beginning clinical rotations - especially those in emergency department and other urgent care settings. Step-by-step tables, algorithms, and over 370 illustrations help readers to evaluate and interpret images depicting the most common traumatic and nontraumatic illnesses and medical conditions in adults and children.
