While most books on x-ray interpretation are written by radiologists, this one is
different in that it's written by physicians, thus giving it a marked clinical
slant. The book is targeted both at undergraduate and postgraduate students in
internal medicine, hence the x-rays presented have been carefully chosen to
represent a range of radiological investigations besides plain x-ray films,
including angiograms, venograms, urograms and computerized tomographic scans.
The goal of the questions is to enable students to systematically question and
determine several points upon examination of abnormalities in an x-ray: that is,
to enquire about points in the history, to look for presence or absence of physical
signs, to consider possibilities and to do the further tests to reach a diagnosis.
The book serves to emphasize that every x-ray has to be interpreted in the background
of clinical data.
