Cardiac radiology is underrepresented during the four years of radiology training. With the availability of more advanced scanners in more practices and the excellent cardiac detail that can be seen on noncardiac gated CT scans of the chest, general radiologists will need to refresh their knowledge base. This cardiac imaging book fills this role in an excellent fashion.
