March 10, 2008 This book is very informative. I learned a lot from and you can keep picking it up and reviewing small or large segments without getting lost.Good for getting little hints on how to remember drugs or anatomy or waves that go together. excellent. November 29, 2007I first purchased the 2nd Edition eight years ago, and when I was asked to teach a Basic Dysrhythmia Course at work, I found out that there was a 4th Edition. I just had to get this edition, the pictures and information in the book is basic enough for license staff and future telementary techs. No one gets lost reading this book, and it supplements what I am teaching. I am in the medical profession but not a nurse or doctor. ECG Interpretation made Incredibly Easy is just that. Simple english explanations with good graphics for simple understanding of what the basic squiggly lines mean. I wasn't interested in diagnosing just interpreting what the strip meant to my treatments of a patient in cargiac rehab. This book suited that purpose. ECG Interpretation Made Incredibly easy. October 18, 2007These are the best nursing books... I have quite a few of them and they are wonderful. They make it easy for the busy nurse to review and understand the content... Excellent books.... Incredibly easy is right!. November 11, 2006I'm a second year RN student and I bought this book to help me better understand my ECG material. I'm planning on working ICU when I graduate; I really wanted to get a firm understanding of this content now so it will be easier to study for my ACLS in a year. This book starts from the ground up explaining the A&P needed, showing you what a normal rhythm looks like and what the components of the ecg are and what they mean physiologically. Then it gets into different dysrhythmias, explaining each one in a very straight-forward manner. | ||
The #1 Choice for ARRT Exam Preparation! This book is the easiest, most trusted way to achieve the best score possible on the ARRT (American Registry of Radiologic Technologists) Exam for Radiography Certification.
5 customer reviews ARRT Test Review. April 8, 2008 This book is perfect for ARRT test prep. Make sure you get the book with the internet access. With the internet, you get to do all the practice tests you need to prepare for the ARRT boards. There are quite a few questions in the book and internet that are verbatim. so far, so good. March 19, 2008I haven't taken the registry exam yet, but for those looking for a good book to review, I recommend this one. I haven't made it through the whole book yet, but there are a lot of questions with such detailed explainations for every section. The questions are difficult, but I have been told by numerous people that these questions are harder than that of the actual ARRT exam. There are questions designated to each section, way more than what the real test will be, but the end of the book contains 2 practice tests combining all of the sections. VERY HELPFUL! Lange Q&A(tm) is an Exceptional Resource!. October 19, 2007With this book comes free access to an online testing web site. This online, create-your-own exam feature is what got me through the registry test. It allows you to select any number of questions (there are more than 1,400!), from any of the 5 main categories (and the myriad sub-categories), those you've already seen or not seen, or to use only the ones you've previously gotten wrong. And you can use the web site as many times as you need to during your allotted access time (details with the book.) The author was very responsive to my questions when I needed clarification, and there's a link right on the web site making it easy to ask. This is a great resource!!! I recently took the ARRT board exam in Radiography and I used this prep book to prepare for it. I scored a 98% on the exam. I would recommend this guide to anyone who wants to rock the boards. AsB Outstanding !!. June 14, 2007I used pretty much just this book to prepare for the Registry exam in 2006. I did every question in it over the 2 weeks before I sat the Registry, and passed it with a score of 97. What more can I say? This is the only prep book you need. | ||
A High-Yield Summary of the ARRT Exam -- Complete With Outstanding Study Aids! This resource provides students taking the ARRT certifying exam with a narrative, high-yield summary of what to expect on the exam. In addition, the entire radiography curriculum is covered, making this book an excellent study guide throughout the program.
5 customer reviews Life Saver. November 18, 2007 This book helped me pass the ARRT Exam. I haven't been in school for a couple of years...plus I went to school overseas. I had the old version of this book but I needed to buy the newer one. It lived up to it's title "Radiography PREP". This book together with the Lange Q&A - Radiography Examination were the only books I needed...now I'm a Registered RT. Radiography Review Book. October 5, 2007Arrived very promptly in perfect condition. great book for review. gives you need to knows for boards. GREAT REVIEW!!. September 3, 2007I would totally recommend this book to anyone who is going to be taking the ARRT registry. It's a great review from the x-ray program. A must have!! wojonet. October 12, 2006I have been out of school for 32 years and recently needed to renew my ARRT license which I unfortunately had let lapse. I studed this book and the Appleton & Lange review and passed the test with a 90. I highly recommend this book for confidence in taking the registry. Radiography Prep Program Review and Exam Prep 4th Edition D.A. Saia. July 14, 2006Extremely helpful. Streamlines 2 years worth of information into one book. Passed my boards with a 96! | ||

The entire book has been radically updated by many new contributors to reflect all of the most recent advances, including greatly expanded information on 3-D ultrasound and the latest generation of ultrasound scanners, as well as significantly increased discussions of gynecologic ultrasound. What's more, over 2,400 digital-quality images - 1,050 in full color - capture the characteristic appearance of a full range of ultrasound findings, and a new full-color format makes reference easier than ever. The result is an essential purchase for everyone who uses ultrasound for fetal and gynecologic diagnosis and treatment.
4 customer reviews The book is the best. December 9, 2003 As a radiologist who reads quite a number of OB and GYN ultrasound each day, this book is a great reference ultrasonography in obsterics and gynacology by callen. February 6, 2002I like the book very much. As a student I have difficulties for difficult words. It is a great book for the experts but hard for the students. Millinium book. July 26, 2000This book must be very good. As were the previous editions which showed insight, and deep knowledge of this highly interesting and rapidly changing and popular feild of sonography, requiring frequent updates. Please get new edition!. July 20, 2000Note that a new edition (#4) has been published (ISBN 0 7216 8132 8). I hope you will have it available very soon, as it is GREAT! | ||
The most current, comprehensive question-and-answer review of diagnostic medical sonography for national certification examination preparation. This popular review covers all facets of ultrasound, including basic physics, vascular sonography, ob/gyn, transvaginal, transrectal, adult and pediatric echocardiography, and neurosonography. Includes hundreds of images and 12 pages in full color. 5 customer reviews This book will only confuse you.. December 2, 2007 If you are studying for the RDMS test, don't waste your time studying using this book. If you had a good solid core understanding of ultrasound...you will find this book full of errors...it had too many errors that it was sometimes amusing and frustrating at the same time. This book will only confuse you if you are just at the starting point of your studying process. DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMENDED. Excellent review for ultrasound physics. March 11, 2007This book is a great investment for those preparing for the ARDMS Physics boards. It should be used along with a good physics text (such as Edelman's Understanding Ultasound Physics). Appleton and Lange's study guide provides a good REVIEW of physics; however, there is NOT enough material to study to fully prepare students to sit for the boards. The 500+ questions following the study guide provide the opportunity to APPLY knowledge. Explainations for most questions are offered in the answer section. Good Review Book. July 22, 2006I found this book a good review for the registry. There are a lot of questions at the end of the book to review the material that is covered. REVIEW BOOK. March 3, 2006This book is fantastic. This review book was assigned to my senior ultrasound program in our last quarter of classes. A colleague of mine who is a radiologic technologist had used the A&L RT review book and found it helpful, so my expectations when it was assigned were to be able to learn and to have a good array of review questions. | ||
Designed to both instruct and prepare individuals for certification examinations, this text offers two mock registry examinations as well as a succinct review of abdominal and OB/GYN ultrasound. A lively, interactive review format follows the ARDMS Guidelines for the Registry Examinations and provides: over 800 questions with detailed explanations for both correct and incorrect answers; test-taking strategies; blank answer sheets for self-evaluation; useful appendices on word origins and lab tests; and extensive bibliography that promotes further study. High-quality images enhance the text. Includes a CD-ROM with randomized mock examinations for realistic preparation. 5 customer reviews GREAT investment!. May 3, 2008 This book REALLY prepared me for the exam. I purchased it less than 3 weeks prior to taking the exam and I PASSED on the 1st try! :) You will find the mock exams to be extremely helpful and ALOT like the actual exam. **hint hint** I finally passed the Abdomen portion!. December 14, 2007I purchased this book after failing the Abdomen registry twice and this was definitely a godsend. The review CD was very helpful and a lot of the registry questions are on the mock exams they provide you with. They also divided the mock exam by each subject (liver, biliary tee, etc.) so you can find out what your weak subject is. Highly recommended! Exam preparation for diagnostic Ultrasound :OB/gyn (lippincott's Review Series). January 27, 2007It is an excelent book to review for RDMS exam. US ABDOMEN/OB REVIEW BOOK. January 16, 2007THIS BOOK WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL. I AM IN US SCHOOL SO I USED IT TO STUDY FOR MY COMPREHENSIVE FINAL EXAMS. VERY GOOD! Excellent Study guide and Review. October 27, 2006The text was easy to read with excellent pointers on how to pass the registry and explanations to questions. | ||
Here's the 5th Edition of the classic textbook on vascular ultrasoundthoroughly updated to include a new, full-color format, a new co-editor, a new team of contributors, and cutting-edge diagnostic procedures.

You find all the basic information about the most common topics on vascular sonography and how to solve the day by day challenges you'll find in your routine. Best buy for beginners. Simple and Efficient. February 27, 2007Simple and efficient, with topics about almost everything in Doppler's world. A clear text and very well organized. The best of the basic. March 19, 2006A textbook providing a simple and wide view of basic vascular ultrasonography An Excellent Text and Reference. October 2, 2005This new 5th edition is an improvement on an already excellent text on vascular sonography. Some tests are heavy on very detailed, hard-to-grasp, very long-winded theory that seem to be aimed at physicists. Still others are intentionally simplistic in an attempt to convey the basic issues, while unfortunately, This is a very thorough text on vascular sonography. Covers all apsects of vascular from peripheral to abdominal. Explains hemodynamics of blood flow and pathology. Excellent text to study for the boards and use in clinical practice. | ||
This new volume in the popular Radiology Requisites series efficiently presents all of the core knowledge in general, vascular, and obstetric/gynecologic ultrasound. It covers everything from basic principles through state-of-the-art tech-niques, with a focus on the specific information needed to pass the boards and practice radiology. Concise but compre-hensive, it is extremely easy to read, with abundant charts and lists to summarize important facts at a glance.
5 customer reviews Excellent introduction to U/S. October 15, 2007 I'm a 1st year radiology resident. This book is a good balance between time spent and knowledge obtained for a busy resident. Totally recommended as a first read before entering U/S rotation. However, coverage of vascular ultrasonography is minimal- so after mastering this your next logical step would be Zwiebel's book. Introduction to Vascular Ultrasonography(Fifth Edition) Outstanding. August 30, 2007Great book that cover general and obstetric ultrasound in a concise way. I found myself reading this book when I had some free time at work, before I bought my own. It covers Abdomen and OB-GYN, so you dont need another book. For a textbook, its easy to read and the pictures are fantastic, so you know when you see it on your patient. I sold my other text books because I acutally read this one and refer to it. I love this book!!! Great Book. July 29, 2006I am a second year radiology resident. I just completed my first US rotation. I used this book and thought it was great. It has nice pictures and a well-put-together text. All in all, I highly recommend it. One of the best of the Requisites series! Must have for US library. October 12, 2005This is an excellent reference book with beautiful images of normal anatomy as well as pathology. It is very comprehensive with General as well as OB-Gyn coverage. My only disappointment was that it did not contain any pediatric ultrasound chapters. | ||
Using a flip-card format, this compact guide provides protocols that take the guesswork out of image documentation. These comprehensive protocols follow the imaging guidelines of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) and include a universal method for documenting any type of pathology. Examples of the required images for the physician's diagnostic interpretation are included. Documentation specifics are provided for full and limited abdominal studies, gynecological and obstetric exams, and prostate evaluations. Also provided are protocols for small parts, vascular system, and echocardiography.
3 customer reviews awesome book. November 20, 2007 great book for all sonographers. Clear pictures, quick references. I highly recommend it to anyone, from students to experienced techs. If you have the first edition, there's no need to buy the second!. November 9, 2007I liked the first edition, eventhough there were a lot of images that were repeated over and over again(I would give it 4 stars- there are no other books like this that shows all the protocols you need, so I'll give the author credit for that). I bought the new one only to find myself looking at an identical book. There were hardly any added images in the second edition and it's not worth getting. My advice, stick to the first edition if you already have it. Buy the second edition "only" if you don't have the first edition. Quick Reference for New Sonographers. May 21, 2000I recently graduated from the Florida Institute of Ultrasound. I desperatly needed some help in my new job remembering protocols, measurements, and how my images should appear before turning them in to the radiologist. This book has been a life saver! It's easy reference markers allows me to quickly find the subject I need, review protocol, and still have the patient out without prolonging the exam. A must have for new graduates. | ||
Considered by many to be the most relied-upon, practical text of its kind, Clinical Sonography: A Practical Guide is appreciated for its clear, concise writing, consistent format, and problem-based organization. This text cuts through complicated material to deliver the clearest and most comprehensive guide to sonography, leading students from the basics of imaging and positioning to more advanced clinical tips on instrumentation and report making. The Fourth Edition includes over 800 new black-and-white images and 48 full-color images. New chapters cover ankle problems, malpractice, laboratory accreditation, and ergonomics. Chapters on artifacts, interventional techniques, and shoulder sonography have been extensively revised. 4 customer reviews Product lost. February 15, 2008 The products I oredered for over one month. I did not get it yet. It may be lost although I have paid last month. Great book!!!. June 24, 2004Great practical guide, especially for intership/first years of practice. Great pictures, clear, consise explanation. Would recommend it for beginners. Not Enough Information - Needs More Clarity. June 6, 2003I am currently enrolled in my first ultrasound class. I think the writers needs to expand on the subjects. The Key Words section doesn't do a good job of defining the words. I've been searching all over the internet trying to get some clarity. Their are words in this book that cannot be found in other dictionaries. I don't think this is a beginners book. mcp Very Good, but expensive for Pakistan's poor doctors. January 27, 1999I use and recommend this book as the core course for my ultrasound trainee doctors. Dr. Fazeel-uz-Zaman City Ultrasound Institute, Abbottabad, Pakistan. |
