Recensione:
When a Medical Student or Junior Doctor asks me how can I learn radiology from 1 book I now have the answer. The Unofficial Guide to Radiology contains 100 annotated radiographs displaying a very comprehensive range of diseases. The presentation starts with an unknown case, which you are invited to review. You then turn over the page and line diagrams are used to demonstrate what you should have seen. The perfect report is displayed, followed by a series of questions which examine your knowledge of the background medicine or surgery. This is a great way to get a feel for radiology as a whole and will deal with a lot of the problems that Medical Students and Junior Doctors face every day. I can also see its value for those much further on in their career who have specialised in one area and would like to revise radiology as a whole and reassure themselves that they can still remember what they learnt years before. The team producing the book have worked very hard to find good quality images with excellent examples of a wide range of disorders. It also reemphasises the importance of conventional radiographs, which we tend to forget now we concentrate heavily on cross-sectional imaging. I am very pleased to recommend this inexpensive book to a wide range of medical and paramedical professionals. --David Wilson, President of the British Institute of Radiology
I have not come across a text that is as comprehensive a guide to radiology and radiology services for medical students and junior doctors as this... Other books such as the Lecture Notes of Radiology and Crash course: imaging that are also aimed at providing medical students with an overview of various imaging modalities and how to assess for common pathology do not have the same breadth or readability as this text. Working through this book a student would undoubtedly feel more confident and prepared in presenting imaging findings on a ward round and the authors are to be congratulated on their efforts --BMA Medical Book Awards 2015
Which radiographs from each system are most likely to be presented in exams? This excellent book presents the classics, and at one level this makes it a high-yield textbook that will be extremely valuable to medical students and junior doctors. What is especially striking is the definition and clarity of the illustrations, with on-image labelling enabling one to be absolutely certain of which is the endotracheal tube, the nasogastric tube and the central line, for example. --Bob Clarke, Associate Dean, Professional Development, London.

Mark Rodrigues is a Radiology Registrar based at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. He graduated from Medicine with Honors from Edinburgh University and has published and presented research extensively and internationally in the fields of radiology and medical education. Whilst working as a junior doctor in Edinburgh Mark helped write The Unofficial Guide to Passing OSCEs. He has subsequently been a chapter author in the follow up books The Unofficial Guide to Passing OSCEs: Candidate Briefings, Patient Briefings and Mark Schemes, and The Unofficial Guide to Prescribing. Mark is also involved in teaching medical students through his roles as a Clinical Tutor Associate for the University of Edinburgh and lecturer for the Edinburgh Student Radiology Society.
Zeshan Qureshi is a Paediatrician based at Great Ormond Street and the Institute of Child Health. He graduated with distinction from the university of Southampton, and has published and presented research work extensively and internationally in the fields of pharmacology and medical education. Whilst working in Edinburgh he was part of the leadership team developing a near peer teaching programme, where by junior doctors, throughout south east scotland, were both trained to teach, and delivered teaching across every hospital in the area. This book is an extension of this philosophy: that junior doctors and fresh graduates know how to express complex ideas in order for it to be easily understood from a students perspective. That junior doctors can teach, and write in a complimentary way to senior doctors: one that is friendly and fun, easy to read and relevant to both exams, and the day to day to life of junior doctors. Following the success of The Unofficial Guide to Passing OSCEs and the feedback from the students being taught, The Unofficial Guide to Radiology was developed. This book extensively expands on the radiology chapter in The Unofficial Guide to Passing OSCEs, providing a comprehensive learning resource for X-ray interpretation for medical students, junior and hospital doctors and nurse practitioners.
