Reviews
' learning objectives for each chapter... clearly define what the learner should take from the chapter and reinforce important concepts '

' self-assessment questions and self-assessment examination are also excellent and would lend themselves well to assessment of resident performance at a program level.'

'an excellent book for a first or second rotation in pediatric radiology'

'a nice summary overview of commonly seen entities in pediatric imaging appropriate'

'[Iyer] covers the subjects in greater depth than in Pediatric Imaging: The Fundamentals, Donnelly (Elsevier, 2009)'
