This is how I spend a portion of my time at work. Reading this book and relearning all of the things that I have forgotten. I only hope that each time I read it more and more sticks.

too obsolete in many aspects

Love this txt book great reference for some intro stuff but I found the ct and newer modalities to be lacking. Excellent for foundation of knowledge in Dx imaging.
