Title: DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
Review: I am a 4th year Radiology Resident at UCSF. I can't believe I spent money on the 3rd edition CD-ROM atlas a couple of years ago. If you are a radiology resident, do not buy this! The image quality is poor, the resolution is awful, the images are too small even if you decrease the screen resolution, and the cross sectional images are worse than the images we acquire with extremely outdated county hospital equipment. The cross sections from the CT brain are acquired in an oblique projection, making them difficult to compare with the images obtained at most hospitals. The MRI images are way outdated. I just pulled up some angio images to go over vascular anatomy for the upcoming oral board exam and these images are awful! No celiac axis, no detailed pelvic vasculature. I am angry and embarrassed that I spent $80 on this. Fortunately, my book stipend paid for it. I don't want you to make the same mistake. You should expect better quality images for such an expensive atlas.
