 Imaging Atlas of Human Anatomy September 23, 2008
This book was actually required for my program classes this semester. The picutres in the book are very well presented and is labeled very well. I have found it very useful in helping me prepare for my exams.
 atlas that is actually small enough to have around February 10, 2007
This is not the most thorough cross sectional atlas available. However, the smaller size of this book compared to other anatomy references is a bonus. This book's portable size makes it easily available when needed. Has nice MRI pics that are very useful when reading studies. It is still useful to have a larger atlas available when on call, but this one works for most studies. Good value.

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you decrease the screen resolution, and the cross sectional images are worse than the images we acquire with extremely outdated county hospital equipment.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 The MRI images are way outdated.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.
Excellent atlas August 22, 2005

This atlas is the best imaging atlas I have encountered to date in a price range suitable for medical students. The illustrations are of superb quality, and cover a wide range of images, including CT scans, MRIs, angiograms, etc. The only real limitation of the atlas is that it does not cover any pathological anatomy. We have used the Barrett atlas for MRIs in the past, but will probably discontinue using it since the Weir text has very similar MRIs. We will continue using the Wicke text, but the Weir text has figures comparable to a fair number of the Wicke figures, in addition to having the best array of MRIs, CT scans, angiograms, etc.
Best for MRI and CT May 23, 2003

I highly reccomend this for MRI and CT images viewing. The images are very clear and capture the area of interest very well. Medical professionals will sure can rely on this atlas for normal images.
