Few Useful Online Radiology Textbooks 1.
Chorus or Collaborative Hypertext of Radiology at
http://chorus.rad.mcw.edu/ is available from Medical College of Wisconsin.
It is a "quick reference" hypertext for physicians and medical students with more
than 1,100 documents that describe diseases, radiological findings, differential-diagnosis
lists ("gamuts"), and relevant anatomy, pathology, and physiology. Interestingly,
CHORUS is based on Fact/File, a radiology hypertext reference that has been used
with a clinical radiology information system at the University of Chicago. This
"quick reference" hypertext deals with individual systems, multisystem entities,
besides having a separate feature on technical material. 2. Radiology
Board Review Notes
http://medicine.creighton.edu/radiology/Boardrevnotes.html and http://medicine.creighton.edu/radiology/basicimaglec.html
is a site from Creighton University with comprehensive text material on different
organ systems such as Musculoskeletal, Chest, Gastrointestinal, Genitourinary,
Obstetrics, Neuroradiology and on different modalities such as Radiophysics, Mammography
and Nuclear Medicine. Another feature of the website is the coverage on differential
diagnosis and staging of neoplasms. 3. The Virtual Hospital Collection
at http://www.vh.org/Providers/Textbooks/MultimediaTextbooks.html
is a digital collection of multimedia teaching materials. online texts, cases,
and other items classified according to information type, department, and organ
system. This collection of multimedia resources is created and sourced from the
University of Iowa. At the moment there is a collection of approximately fifty
electronic texts and image databases, comprising dermatology, pathology, anatomy,
differential diagnosis and other topics. 4.
The Radiology Survival Manual is a medical student's and intern's guide
to the radiology required to survive a night on-call. This site is available at
http://www.indyrad.iupui.edu/public/alexanders/rsm/home.html
