Customer Rating:      Summary: Best of Case Review Series - take note Comment: I've been mostly disappointed by the Case Review Series. One exception had been the Ultrasound book, which was above average for the group.
Dr. Reddy's book is another pleasant surprise.
The book arrived with several others a few months ago and I accidently discarded it along with the shipping box into my recycling bin, thinking it was a catalogue. The book is very thin (less than 1 cm thick), although it actually has a reasonable page count.
I later recovered the book, disappointed that I'd spent so much on a pamphlet, and stuck it on the bottom of my stack of books to get around to reading.
Now, I'm very happy I saved it for last. After completing this book I feel fairly confident that I will at least understand the anatomy of any major cardiac lesion/anomaly presented at the ABR exams. Dr. Reddy's text ties together many of the cases seen in Pediatrics and Chest and provides reasonable multimodality support for these entities. It's also up to date, unlike many of the other Case Review Series, and the image quality is excellent.
The book also duplicates many of the cases on the UCSF Cardiac MRI CD-ROM.
Now, Dr. Yousem, please take a close look and consider remodeling the other books in the series after this text.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Another strong addition to the series Comment: The Case Review Series may be the most useful books I have used during my residency. They have been enormously helpful in preparing for boards and just learning cases. This cardiac addition is no exception. I'm a little disappointed by the publisher going to a thinner stock paper (several times I accidently turned 2 pages which spoiled the next case) but other than that it's very deserving of being in the series.
How the series could go from an A to A+ (are you listening, Dr. Yousem?): make the discussions more succinct with rapid-fire headings like Findings, Diagnosis, Differential, Key Points (i.e. - what a board examiner might be looking for). We can get the rest from our other textbooks. My thanks to Drs. Reddy, Yousem and all the other CRS authors.
