"The illustrations and the radiological images are all of high quality, making this book a valuable reference for thoracic and cardiac anatomy. It should be on the bookshelf of all radiologists who interpret CT or MR images of the chest."-Bennett Greenspan, MD, MS(Medical College of Georgia) Doody Review: 5 stars
"This book shows you the classic, high-quality images that Dr. Frank Netter produced during his lifetime (1906-1991) and became world renowned for, as well as present-day images obtained through technologies currently used such as computer tomography (CT) and the more recently-developed cardiac computed tomographic angiography (CTA). The full-color anatomical paintings and the technological images in this volume are numerous and the information provided in them is prodigious. This book is a keepsake and a valuable reference source. It is a virtual gem, I wouldn’t hesitate to say." ~Nano Khilnani
