Small Animal Imaging: Self-Assessment Review is a well-organized
compilation of clinical cases and is simply divided into 3 parts:
abdomen, thorax, and musculoskeletal system. It has an index at the
back in addition to a listing of broad classifications of cases in
the front, which enables readers to easily locate information
regarding a specific type of case. The text is minimal and easy to
follow and understand.- Rachel Schochet, DVM, MS, DACVR, Petrays,
Idaho in JAVMA, Vol 253, No. 6, September 2018 After providing
labelled reference images for the normal dog and cat radiographic
anatomy, the book is divided into three sections – the thorax,
abdomen and musculoskeletal system. Each section is subdivided into
questions and answers. Setting the book out in this way encourages
the reader to work through the cases of common diseases, rather
than simply looking at the model answers. The answers section
contains concise yet helpful information and the provision of a
final case diagnosis could act as a prompt for further reading as
necessary. The radiographic images used in this book are generally
excellent quality. The succinct nature of the text makes the book
an easy read and the contents and index pages make navigation
straightforward. These aspects make it a perfect quick reference
guide as well as a great way to test diagnostic radiology skills on
the go.In conclusion, this book offers a valuable introduction to
radiographic interpretation in small animals, and offers plenty of
cases for veterinary students to test and improve on their current
knowledge. It is highly recommended and well worth the price as a
both a revision guide and reference book.- Niamh Fowler (final-year
