As part of the successful Requisites series, this volume presents what the resident needs to know about musculoskeletal imaging. Its concise and up-to-date coverage prepares readers for the exams, while providing the practising radiologist with a quick, practical reference guide.
I am radiology resident and I bought this book as review alternative to the big textbooks, I was really surprised it, it is a very complete book.

regarding first review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
The first review with one star refers to the FIRST edition of this series which was a different author. The second edition here HAS been redone just as the writer correctly suggested.
Hi Yield Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I thought that this book laid out information in a very clear, high yield manner. Great for any resident whether starting to master MSK or for use in board review. I really like how the authors have also inserted actual practice guidelines for real world use. Overall, I think if you had to have one book and did not have the time to read Resnick's book, this would be the one to get.
Outstanding! A must-have text for radiology residents.

Forget the first edition of this text - the second edition is a complete revision with new authors, the bulk of the book written by Dr. B. J. Manaster. If you have read Dr. Manaster's Handbook of Skeletal Radiology, you will find that her chapters follow that book closely, with the addition of many images of excellent quality. This is a vast improvement over the prior edition, and ranks up there with the best of the Requisites series. I wish I had this book when I was first rotating through MSK radiology, but it will make a good review book for the boards.More senior radiology residents may find the MRI detail a bit lacking, but there is no question in my mind that this is the best overall MSK book for radiology residents out there today.
