description: This is the latest addition to the Oxford Core Text series for medical undergraduates. As reliance on imaging techniques increases it is essential that medical students understand the role of radiology in clinical practice and develop a mechanism for choosing appropriate investigations. This text aims to provide concise and practical coverage of imaging for students in clinical medicine. It is designed to help the student to interpret basic radiographs and to use X-ray and other images to solve clinical problems. Part 1 teaches how to look at common radiographs and recognize the presence and nature of abnormalities. Part 2 discusses investigation of clinical problems and helps resolve them. This section also includes information about the different modalities and the appearance of important disorders. Part 3 contains information about the role of radiology, safety, care of the patient and interventional radiology.
