The "purple book" that helps residents and techs to prepare for the radiologic physics portion of board and registry exams is now in its Second Edition! Chapters outline key information and test the reader's understanding with board-type review questions, along with answers and rationale provided. Includes 500 multiple-choice questions. Topics covered include MRI, CT, US, mammography, radiography, fluoroscopy, nuclear medicine and more. New features include an 18% larger text, more test questions at the end of each chapter, new and revised illustrations, and an expanded glossary. New chapters include those on image quality and dose, digital imaging and PACS, computers and mathematics, and a separate chapter on CT.
very good explanations on the physics for radiology modalities. Even explained from the very beginning to the end. Although, there are moments where few illustrations would make things easier to understand the concept. The MRI sections were a bit too short than expected. Albeit, it's a good read as a pair with other recommended radiology physics for FRCR
