I have this book. This is a good introductory book but without too in depth detail. One would be better suited with the Handbook of Interventional Radiology Procedures as a pocket guide. The Requisites and Valji's IR text are excellent. A's IR book is very in depth but easy to read. As a first text for IR, I would go with Valji or the Requisites. If you are a resident, go with either one. If you are a fellow, good luck findings time to read anything but then again, you must have already read ... Read More
Rating:  - Excellent guide to interventional practice
I feel that this book is a very informative guide, regardless of experience in the field. It starts at the basics and elaborates on every aspect of the interventional lab. Good introductory book for anyone starting in this area of radiology.
Rating: - Quick Evaluation
Outstanding book. More concentrated information than I've found in any other guide to IR and exceedingly well written.
Rating: - Good for beginners
If you are new to intervention, then make it your first book to read. If not, then make it the 2nd book. The book doesn't describe the techniques in detail, but it will give a good orientation about what you are about to do, what to look for, and what to avoid. (It will answer some questions that you may be shy to ask .. shhhhh).
After all, it is a good book for beginners
Rating: - Great Resource
