The book contains the following contents:

  • Physics and equipment
  • Principles of radiography

  • Contrast radiography
  • Radiology of the thorax
  • Radiology of the abdomen
  • Radiology of the appendicular skeleton
  • Radiology of the head
  • Radiology of the vertebral column

  • CD

An extra feature is the CD, which contains all the radiographic images from the manual, so that readers can view the many images at an enlarged size.

The manual is available from October and can be ordered from www.bsava.com.
