Download or read book A Brief Guide to the Neuroradiology Fellowship written by Long H Tu and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-06-27 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few graduating residents are ready for the demands of subspecialty neuroradiology. This is in part because there remain gaps in the educational literature prior to fellowship. Subspecialty practice requires familiarity with exams and procedures that residents rarely encounter. Neuroimaging is frequently both high complexity and high acuity. The beginning of fellowship can therefore present the steepest and highest stakes learning curve encountered during the whole of radiology training. The goal of this text is to provide a primer for this challenging year. Search patterns, procedure checklists, recommended resources, and tips for efficiency are presented in as accessible a manner as possible. This book is everything I wish I had known and everything I would pass on to each new trainee. I'm sure it'll be a useful tool on your path to becoming an excellent neuroradiologist and physician.

Download or read book Search Pattern A Systematic Approach to Diagnostic Imaging written by Long H. Tu and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Search Pattern is a collection of step-by-step guides to more than a hundred of the most common types of studies in radiology. Blind spots reported in the literature as well as practical wisdom from experts is synthesized into highly structured processes that can guide the development of better practice. Much of the contained insight has never been organized in one place before. Search Pattern covers almost every type of study that a radiologist will encounter in training or practice. This text is written with the assumption that the reader has familiarity with basic radiologic terminology, anatomy, and physics. In the interest of brevity, almost all information outside of the organized approaches is omitted. The reader is encouraged to look up terms, images, and background information from supplementary resources. Formalized teaching of search patterns is a missing part of the educational literature in our field. Hopefully this book helps fill that void. It is one that I would have benefited from greatly when I was a resident.
