This study tool has everything you need to prepare for the ARRT CT exam! Written in outline format, Mosby's Exam Review for Computed Tomography, 2nd Edition serves as both a study guide and an in-depth review. It covers the three content areas on the CT advanced certification examination: patient care, imaging procedures, and physics/instrumentation. Developed by Daniel N. DeMaio, BS, RT(R) (CT), the book simulates the Registry exam with three 165-question mock exams. A companion Evolve website includes a test bank of 635 questions that can be randomly sampled to create unlimited variations -- so you never take the same test twice.
- Review questions with answers help you prepare for the ARRT exam and identify areas that need additional study.
- Rationales for correct and incorrect answers provide you with the information you need to make the most out of the Q&A sections.
- A thorough, outline-format review covers the three content areas on the computed tomography advanced certification exam: patient care, imaging procedures, and physics/instrumentation.
- Mock exams in the book and on the Evolve website prepare you for the ARRT exam, with three 165-question mock exams in the book and 635 questions on Evolve that may be randomly accessed for an unlimited number of exam variations.
- Study aids on Evolve allow you to bookmark questions for later study, see rationales for correct and incorrect answers, get test tips for different questions, and record and date-stamp your test scores.

Good Book (2010-08-23)
Book is very comprehensive and up to date. Online tests and study aid are very helpful.
Great resource!! (2010-08-05)
I recently purchased this book for review before my CT registry boards and I loved it! I would have given it 5 stars, but there a few 'glitches' with the online exam module that is included. However, the book is layed out very nicely and explains important information without getting too in-depth (like some other books). The mock exams are very similar to the real exam. I would highly recommend using other study material, as well. I used the Pocket Atlas of Body CT Anatomy by W. Richard Webb and Pocket Atlas of Normal CT Anatomy of the Head and Brain by Michelle & Timothy Smith. I also used DeMaio's older version of the CT Registry Review and I passed my board exam 2 weeks ago with a score of 93!!! You will not be disappointed with this book!
only book i bought for review (2010-08-02)
THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK I BOUGHT TO STUDY FOR CERT TEST, GREAT BOOK HELPED A LOT, I TOOK EXAM 7/14 PASSED BUT OUT OF THE THREE TEST IN THE BOOK AND THE OTHER 630 ONLINE QUESTIONS I DIDNT SEE ONE ON MY CERT TEST,BUT I KNOW THIS BOOK HELPED.I HAVE BEEN A TECH FOR 28 YEARS I WOULD SAY THIS BOOK SHOULD REALLY HELP ANYONE WITH THE TEST.
Makes me think (2010-07-26)
This is an excellent book for the CT exaam. It has many questions and it makes me think in a test mode. I have been a technologist for 30 plus years and I need this kind of review. I also bought the physics book for that is my weak point.
A+ book (2010-07-24)

Designed to serve as both a clinical manual and an instructional tool, this text covers the sectional anatomy of the entire body in an easy-to-understand, comprehensive format. The user-friendly design of the book presents actual, diagnostic-quality images from both MRI and CT modalities, side-by-side with line drawings to illustrate the planes of anatomy most commonly imaged. Concise explanations describe the location and function of the anatomy, and each image clearly labels all pertinent anatomic structures to aid in location and identification of anatomy during actual clinical examinations. The result is a practical guide that improves the imaging professional's ability to consistently produce the best possible diagnostic images. Instructor resources are available; please contact your Elsevier sales representative for details.
- Side-by-side presentations of images and line drawings on the same page spread allow the reader to see correlations between line drawings of physical anatomy and actual, diagnostic-quality CT and MR images.
- Over 1,300 images and detailed line drawings demonstrate sectional anatomy for every plane of the body that is commonly imaged.
- Pathology boxes briefly describe common pathologies related to the anatomy being discussed to form connections between the scans in the text and common pathologies readers are likely to encounter in practice.
- Summary tables organize anatomic information for each major muscle group, listing the muscles, points of origin and insertion, and functions.
- Anatomic maps - line drawings that show the angle and level of each scan - appear with the actual scans, so readers can easily access the proper orientation for scanning and identifying anatomy.
- 290 new scans, including more 3D and vascular images, demonstrate current technology.
- A new introductory chapter provides a foundation by teaching the terminology related to sectional anatomy and preparing the reader for more complex content that follows.

Perfect Condition (2009-10-05)
The Sectional Anatomy for imaging professionals, is a good text book for the knowledge of all sectional imaging of all the body. Specialty in the area of brain and nervous sistem. When I received the book, the book was in a perfect condition.
Great Service (2009-04-13)
Product was in excellent condition just like the seller said and I received the item in a timely fashion.
Crossectional anatomy for NONimaging professionals (2008-09-11)
Using this for a cross sectional anatomy class that is required for my Medical Physics program. It seems to be a decent book so far, only covering what I need. I'm not sure how the "imaging professionals" would view it, but I think it is very helpful.
Awesome for CT beginners and pros (2007-04-10)
Has tons of true to life CT images, great descriptions, easy to follow. Also recommend obtaining the workbook that goes along with it. Together they help the understanding process faster and clearer. Don't even need to attend a class with these books!
Caused more frustration than anything (2006-10-28)
This was the required text for my Sectional Anatomy course, as part of my radiography curriculum. I found the layout of the book disorganized and frustrating. I felt it would have been helpful and appropriate for the text to address the sequencing of CT/MRI images instead of showing a random shot here or there...I suppose that's difficult to do without a multimedia/interactive presentation, but I still had alot of trouble learning via this text. I found the abbreviated captions virtually useless and ill-concieved. It's one thing if you're tyring to quiz yourself and want a hint, but if you're trying to learn from scratch, it would have made much more sense seeing the long-hand terms written out in the columns so we know what we're looking at. Having to glance down at the caption and search for the abbreviation in question proved very distracting to the learning process. And the written text was...well, not enough text. Instead of offering helpful ways to differentiate and remember the many different body parts and structures, the text follows a very robotic "the A bone connects to the B bone which leads to the C artery and supplies the D organ...". I felt overwhelmed with similar-sounding descriptions and didn't take much away from the learning experience that wasn't lost in days. If I already had an understanding of cross-sectional anatomy before using this text, it may have served as a succinct review, but given the fact it is assigned to first-time X-sectional learners I felt it was too abstract and devoid of personality. If I decide to go into CT or MRI in the future, I plan on selling this book and doing a little research on finding the best and most current text available at the time. I can tell this one won't age well.

Ground breaking book for people who want an alternative to medication (2010-08-27)
Dr. Amen explains in simple, clear language how various, readily available suppliments can improve and in many cases cure problems that originate in weaknesses in various parts of the brain. These problems include: depression, anxiety and ADD among others. A selection of research papers are provided to back up his claims. Why isn't this material taught in medical schools?
PROMO FOR AUTHOR (2010-08-18)
Disappointing. One long promo for the author and his clinics. A waste of my limited book buying budget.
Lots of words-very little content. (2010-07-09)
The gist of this book is: get lots of exercise, use your brain, get lots of sleep, take at least 5 grams of fish oil daily.
Fortunately I got it out of the library. I suggest you do the same. Interesting verbiage, but very low information content.
Publisher must have paid the author by the word without reading it. Numerous grain scan photos - what for?
Change Your Brain Change Your Life Version 2 (2010-07-05)
Dr. Daniel Amen's Magnificent Mind At Any Mind describes the association of the neurological health of the human brain and mental disorders and offers suggestions in overcoming them from either taking supplements or through self-therapy.
I have read one of the earlier books, Change Your Brain Change Your Life, and this book offers more topics than his earlier book. There was some overlap but this book was different. In his earlier book, he discusses his use of the SPECT scan trying to show its significance in diagnosing disorders. In the Magnificent Mind, he seems way more confident in the value of the SPECT scan. Also, the Magnificent Minds seems to offer more self-therapeutic advice than the earlier book, which seems to focus more on the value of the SPECT scan. This book seems more comprehensive than Change Your Brain Change Your Life. Although it seems that Change Your Brain seems to focus on the neurological component of the brain health, the Magnificent Minds seems to offer both neurological and psychological components.
One of the profound parts of this book is the idea that the mind is OK but the brain may not. The person's character and personality may seem OK, but the brain may be impaired to extent that the person appears irrational, anxious, depressed, and so forth. There might be nothing wrong with your mind, the brain just may be busted. I think one of the points of this book is to put a sick brain back to health.
This is a pretty interesting book. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in how the brain reacts given certain disorders, drug abuse, and addictions such as playing video games. This book may offer a glimpse as to why certain disorders occur.
Magnificent Mind at any age (2010-05-09)
Its a replacement book I loaned out to someone... I thought it was worth replacing again. Dr Amen is the first Dr. and his associates are the first persons to actually help me with my TBI. Everyone else said I didn't want help because I would stop using the drugs the gave me,the side effects were worse than the actual problem and believe me I took a ton of different drugs. Within weeks of following Dr. Amen's protocall and Dr. Goldman's in Fairfield I started getting better. For forty years I walked around without a solution and now I have a chance to be whole again thanks to Dr. Amen and his team.

SEERAM'S COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (2010-07-03)
EXCELLENT READ......VERY INFORMATIVE......ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS TO UNDERSTAND CT PHYSICS FOR THE ARRT EXAM....GET THIS ONE!!!!
Good Reference (2009-10-05)
Hi,
I work at a small hospital with a small radiology department that just added CT. So these reference books are great to have on hand
Great Book/Horrible Seller (2009-08-09)
Once I finally received the book,(it took almost a month) it's great. I was apprehensive about the copyright of 1994, but it provides all the fundemental information needed to study and learn for the registry exam. I would stay away from this seller. It took almost a month and several e-mails and additional money out of pocket to receive the purchase. Amazon was good and made it right with a refund of the additional out of pocket expense as soon as they found out about it. Bad xperience with this seller but impressive custommer service and response from Amazon!
Need for Class (2009-07-30)
I am using this book for a class. It arrived promptly and safely. Book seems to be a little repetitious, but maybe I need that to help in studding the subject.
AMAZON RATING (2009-06-26)
This is a rating for Amazon who I purchased the book through. I payed extra shipping charges to get 2 day delivery on this item which I needed before my class began. My order was placed on 6/21 and when I view the tracking it is saying it will not arrive until 6/26 hardly second day delivery even if we don't count the 21st (it was a Sunday). Expedited shipping from here seems to be a sham.

Nothing special (2009-07-07)
I had to get this book for a class but I wouldn't buy it if I did not have to. All of the pictures are in black and white. Netters books are much better!
clear and classic (2009-05-05)
This is the standard atlas in my human neuroanatomy class. Clear photos and accompanying drawings. Excellent for reviewing brainstem sections.
Great supplemental atlas (2008-02-22)
I really like the layout of this atlas. they give you a labeled drawing on one page and on the next you get the real thing without labels. This is a great way to learn the material rather than learn the book. I wish there were more atlases with this format.

The book is good, but do not deal with this company!! Shipping took it for more than two weeks!! waiting forever for this book!! (2010-06-28)
They should have a better shipping system.
This is 21st century, It shouldn't take no more than 10 days.
Lousy textbook (2010-06-02)
Like others have said "there must be a better textbook out there"
The descriptions go from elementary to MD level. Most of the 2D drawings are difficult to get an idea of where parts are located in a real 3D world.
This book doesn't do it for me or most of my other classmates.
Easy to understand (2010-02-06)
This book gives you the points of interest that you need to know, without going overboard. It is not overwhelming like some others seem to be. If you are studying CT, then I would recommend this book. It is a little pricey, but worth it.
Tough subject, poor textbook. (2004-04-25)
Very difficult to correlate the line drawings with the blown-up grayscale CT slices, which just don't seem to look the same as the real thing. The Sagittal MR slices in chapter 2 are exceptionally difficult for the intended audience to follow.
Factual and typographical errors occur throughout this text, such as identifying the vertebral foramen as the trachea on page 55.
It seems like there could have been a better effort to develop the reader's understanding of 3D anatomy, rather than the brief review of freshman anatomy that is given.
Instructors, please don't inflict this torture on your students.
There must be a better book out there..., part I (2003-12-11)
I was required to use Mr. Madden's book and workbook for a sectional anatomy class I took for a medical program. This could be a pretty good book, but misses the mark for several reasons:
1. Mislabeling. Many structures are just plain labeled wrong, sometimes egregiously wrong, such as aorta for trachea, etc.
2. Incomplete labeling. For example, in a section where location and identification of common carotids is hugely important, Mr. Madden labels either one side of the image only or something like "int/ext common carotid" without distinguishing which is which. However, knowing which is which is vital!
3. Text boxes. Usually Mr. Madden notes salient features in the text boxes on the facing plates to the CT or MR. However, even when he stresses important anatomical landmarks, he DOES NOT LABEL them on the diagram accompanying the image. The student reads the words but has no way to identify the structure. This is pointless!
4. Lack of correlation: Many times, structures just "appear" on a plate with no connection to their partial appearance on preceding or subsequent plates; yet it is this exact skill that is the foundation of an understanding of sectional anatomy.
5. Workbook: At no time in the workbook does Mr. Madden show a simple schematic indicating the plane of section. This is vital for reference and, again, for correlation.
6. Erroneous terms: There are erroneous, mistyped, misedited, or just plain invented medical terms, such as "optic chiasma" (should be chiasm) and "lenticular nucleus" (should be lentiform).
This book seems like a work in progress but no one is improving it. Why not? For the money, the medical student should get a lot more. Anyone with suggestions of a better book (other than Moller/Reif's atlases of sectional anatomy, which are simple and elegant, but could use textual explanations for the beginner), please e-mail me. Perhaps future editions of this book will display some needed corrections.

Not for the beginner. (2009-12-06)
This is a textbook I am currently using. While a first year student this book confused me terribly. As a second year student this book is wonderful. The Instrumentation/Computer chapters (3 & 4) are essential reading prior to taking the boards. In some areas this book is over my ability, but I take from it what pertains to me. This will be a great book during clinicals.
Horrible book (2008-08-08)
This book is riddled with mistakes and misinformation. The CT, PET and NRC guidline sections are particularly weak. It is difficult to trust anything in this book, so I have had to rely on other sources for accurate information and studying for the boards.
Book is great but service sucks (2008-08-04)
The book is in perfect condition and is everything that they said it would be, but I paid for a specific shipping date to be sure that I would receive it in the amount of time I need it, but the book was received one day late and they gave me some lame excuse as to where the book was and why it was late...plus there was some stupid labeling thing that stated that the book was in stock which apparently means that they have it but it is going to take and extra 1 or 2 days on top of the shipping that you paid for so be ready to wait, but there is nothing on the website that informs the customers about that...I am satisified with the book but not the service and the run around I received from the company!

Solid (2010-07-08)
This is a very concise but good book about body CT. Downside is that it does not provide pictures of all pathology that is described and normally only provides a single image for most diagnosis. The text is succinct, allowing it to be read quickly and includes some salient points. It by no means covers each topic in exhaustive detail. The advantage of this book is that the brief, informative text and clear pictures allow you to understand a wide variety of pathology seen in body CT studies. I am confident I will need to upgrade to something with more backbone before I finish residency.
Good content poor binding (2007-09-27)
FYI: Book content is good, however the crafting/binding is poor. Without much use several pages are falling off.
Great introduction to body ct (2007-09-20)
This book cover all the basic stuff needed in body ct. It should be used as a introduction to the subject.
Highly recommended.
Good book but poor quality (2007-01-10)
I am a first-year Radiology resident that was looking for an introductory book that was easy to finish on my first Body CT rotation. The Fundamentals book was a good text with all the necessary info to build upon. The only negative thing I have to say is that the quality of the binding was terrible. After about a week the binding fell apart so that now the final 150+ pages are no longer bound to the book. I'm pretty finiky about books and take care of them, so it's pretty disappointing. Otherwise, its a good first text.
good book if you don't own Fundamentals of Diagnostic Radiology (2005-12-12)
This is a great book with excellent information on body CT imaging.
The reason I give it three stars instead of five is that it's basically an excerpt from the main text of Fundamentals of Diagnostic Radiology.
If you already own that book, don't buy this one.
Otherwise, I highly recommend it.

Fundamentals of Sectional Anatomy: An Imaging Approach incorporates the best features of every book currently available on this topic and adds some additional features making it user friendly. A complete anatomical review is included for each chapter, utilizing numerous line drawings and putting all key words in bold. The meaning for all words in bold is included in the glossary. The key feature is the fact that two complete sets of images are included for each section and each image is fully labeled, expediting the learning process. This approach provides the individual with a realistic exposure to sectional images and provides the opportunity for virtually all anatomy discussed to be identified on the images. The repetition reinforces the assimilation of material. Associated with each image is text permitting the user to self-teach. Review questions are included at the end of each chapter. Unique features are a separate chapter on facial bones and sinuses and the fact that both male and female pelvic images are included in the chapter on the pelvis.

Anatomy (2008-10-07)
This book was very helpful. The text was easy to read, the labels were good and the pictures were excellant. I've loaned it to a co-worker and told her to make sure I get it back. It's definitely a keeper.
Good but not great (2008-01-09)
I bought this book to study for the CT registry. I was not sure if it covered all the anatomy that may be asked on the registry. When i was in the radiography program, we studied in detail every bone and every part of that bone. An example of this book is when talking about facial bones, it simply states mandible. It does not mention ramus, mandibular fossa, symphysis ect... This makes it easier to learn of course by not have alot of small detailed anatomy to memorize but i'm not sure that this is a good thing. Also, it could include longer tests, and maybe some diagram labeling.
helpful book (2007-05-07)
This is a very useful book for CT/MRI Technologists. The images are current and the labeling of anatomy is more detailed than most cross sectional books for Technologist. It is very helpful for Neuro anatomy, but could use additional labeling.

CT& MRI In Your Pocket (2010-06-13)
I was a little disappointed in this book. I had hoped for a quick reference book that would help identify common pathologies in cross sectional imaging, but no. There are many interesting cases included but this book will not be my companion in my pocket.

Review on CT/MR Atlas (2007-09-18)
As a 2nd year Radiology resident, this book is a good primer for CT and MRI correlates. It's in no way a substitute for a text or full-series discussion, but to solidify key concepts of common pathology as your reviewing cases initially, it's hard to beat.
Cheap and Introductory...a good buy.
