Summary:
When faced with an unfamiliar radiographic image, junior doctors often wonder, ‘Where do I start?’ and ‘Have I covered everything?’ Having a logical and systematic approach to film viewing is vital in order to glean as much diagnostic information as possible from the image. A thorough approach, covering all aspects of the image, will ensure that potentially important pathology does not get missed.
Frameworks for Radiology Reporting outlines methodical systems to aid image analysis for commonly encountered radiological examinations. These systems will help facilitate a reproducible process of image interpretation and avoid the common pitfalls of reporting.
The book is divided up by body system, each of which covers the commonly encountered radiological examinations. There is also a chapter on paediatric interpretation, highlighting the main differences between paediatric and adult radiology. Throughout, high quality radiological images are annotated to demonstrate important points.
Edited by two highly motivated radiology trainees with a special interest in medical education, this book benefits from the additional expertise of a range of consultant radiologists from a variety of sub-specialties.
Frameworks for Radiology Reporting will not only be of great value to trainee radiologists but also to physicians and radiographers with an interest in the process of image interpretation.
A must for trainee radiologists, to learn how to approach film reporting and be able to build a solid, well-constructed relevant report Useful 'Interpretation Tips' throughout chapters and 'Further Reading' chapter at the end Excellent, sharp image quality

5 Stars: Brilliant for all Specialties
This book acts as an excellent basis on which to start to look at these images with more authority, whilst providing many tips and secrets from those with years of experience, to pick out the more obscure signs. Written for the trainee radiologist to offer an early insight into the subject, it remains equally valuable for all of us who come across radiographic images as part of our working life.

5 Stars: Awesome book for radiology sprs
This book is great. It does what it says on the tin by giving the reporter some basic knowledge and observations to start scribing a written report. It is also very useful in providing the reporter with some spiel for coping with the early viva-like situations of presenting a report. In all, a great tome!
Amazon customer review, Apr 2009
The book is well organised in to the different chapters, and provides a good overview of the main reporting areas. The image quality is excellent with good legends that are easy to follow and the tables that have been provided are equally each to follow, complementing the text and images, and enhancing the overall quality of an excellent trainee reference book for radiology reporting. The book fulfils its purpose of providing a good basic framework for the trainee radiologist to work from, as well as extending knowledge in particularly relevant and important areas. The cost of the book is entirely reasonable and should be a must for trainee radiologists to work with, to learn how to approach film reporting, and to be able to build a solid, well-constructed relevant report with. This is a little pearl of a book that I shall certainly be recommending.

I found this book well written, easily read and well laid out. It is aimed at junior doctors but could be just as useful for the allied health professional who is embarking on reporting as role development. At its price, this is a book that will find its way into the pocket of trainee radiologists and not sit on the shelf in the office. It should also be on the book list for any practitioner in the X ray or A&E dept who is venturing into reporting radiographs in any modality.
