This is all you need to pass the Physics ABR board exam. A life raft in a sea of despair!

There is a seperate chapter in radiation safety, however this information is also scattered throughout the text. I would have preferred for all the material to be stuck in one section. Other people may prefer differently, but I find it difficult to remember all the factoids and magic numbers. Maybe a compromise solution would be a quick index section at the end listing all the “must know” numbers and formulas.

Although it is a must for any Radiology Resident preparing for major board exams, I think it is also helpful to any doctor who wants to brush up, seek clarifications or gain some understanding on the matter.

Good book to study for radiology physics test. Read this, Nickoloff, and recalls. Recalls are the most important. I passed.
BTW, buy a used one, $53 is too much to spend for a book you’re going to use for 3-5 months and never open again.

Huda does a very good job. A lot of questions came from the material from the book. The questions themselves I found less useful. But be careful, this is not a substitute to lectures/recalls/etc. Just an extremely handy addition. Honestly, next to lectures and recalls, this was THE ONLY physics text I used… and I passed by a healthy margin.
