This book “Review of Radiology” is intended to help students in understanding the basic concepts of the subject with the help of images, who are preparing for the postgraduate medical entrance examination (PGMEE). It is a concise review of key radiology principles to help students not just in understanding radiology which they might have missed during their clinics in MBBS but also to help them in applications of imaging modalities for various clinical conditions like in medicine and surgery. This book is organized into four sections and seven chapters. Difficult concepts are explained stepwise and in form of flowcharts with special high yield points in separate boxes adjacent to text wherever relevant. More than 150 images and more than 50 flow diagrams and tables will help the students not just to understand the text but also to memorize the material quickly in a way to aid in long-term retention. Each chapter begins with a concise theory of each topic, followed by multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and their clear, concise, proper explanations with references of the standard textbooks and/or, research papers wherever required to avoid repetition of the text.

Key Features

• Image-based learning is an integral part of radiology and studying radiology without images might be a futile attempt to learn it. The paucity of such publications has motivated the authors to bring out this well organized, up to date book of radiology which has all the relevant images and image-based questions along with an online pool of images, covering all the important signs and systemic diseases, which surely do not have any substitute or replacement.
• Review of Radiology is an attempt by authors to ensure answers for all the questions related to imaging from all the subjects of clinical domain, like surgery, medicine, obstetrics and gynecology pediatrics, orthopaedics, ENT and ophthalmology. All the topics and concepts given in all the sections (General Radiology, Systemic Radiology, Radiotherapy and Nuclear Scans, Few Thumb Rules in Radiology, Image-based Questions) are not only just for the examinations but also for the students’ future clinical training and day to day working in hospitals.
• Review of Radiology is surely an ideal book without which learning of medicine and preparation of entrance examination/ USMLE is incomplete.
