"Milla (radiology, New York U. Medical Center) and Bixby (radiology, Harvard Medical School, & Children's Hospital of Boston) have brought together this collection of pediatric radiology cases<-->with no notion of being comprehensive. The aim instead is to make available a convenient review or introduction to images of both common and rare conditions. Each of 320 cases is presented with images (a total of over 900) and with a consistent outline text identifying the patient's demographics or clinical history, findings, and one or two lines of discussion concerning definition, characteristic clinical features, radiologic findings, and differential diagnosis; each case includes at least one suggested reading. The full text is available online (access included). Suitable for quick reference on the job and for exam review."
