Summary: excellent
Comment: I agree with all of the three previous reviewers in both praise and critique, which force me to purchase this book. It absolutely worth five stars.
I enjoyed reading and learning from this pocket atlas. Extremely good quality pictures. I whished that I knew about when I started my Neurology residency, so I would always keep it in my bag, as I am doing now.
It is a fast read, very helpful. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Relatively Good
Comment: This little book is a compilation of normal MRI images of the human brain. It contains 61 images, each on one page, with a list of labelled structures. The images include axial views (14 images), coronal views (21 images) and sagittal views, which, with only 6 images, is the weakest section. There are also two short sections on the sella turcica (mostly coronal views, with one close up sagittal) and magnetic resonance angiography of the major cerebral vessels.
Students and residents beginning to interpret neuroimaging are often in need of a basic reference that shows gross neuroradiological anatomy. This book attempts to fill that need. On the whole it does: the images are clear, the important structures for the most part are labelled, and orientative 'locator' diagrams for each image are provided. The book can however be improved in the following ways:
1. The author, an authority of brain and spine MRI, can begin the book with an introductory chapter that explains the basics of MRI images and how they are formed. What are T1 and T2 images? What structures produce high signals and what low? What do air, blood, bone and fat look like? For the beginning medical student, this is useful information.
2. For each image, a summary of what you should be looking for will be most helpful. Eg. What should the size of the normal 3rd ventricle be? If for each page, he gave in bullet form what you should be looking for, the value of the book would be immeasurably increased.
3. More detailed labelling would be a plus.
