Review Summary: Best book out there!
Date: 2008-11-10
Details: I failed the abdomen test twice before getting my hands on this book. It had the best practice questions I have seen to this date in it! The questions were very thought provoking and really opened my eyes to the thought processes I needed to have to answer each type of question. The review for each portion of the exam was very simple and to the point. There is no extra text in it, ONLY what you need to know! It was very easy to just open it up and review one specific thing if that's what I needed. I have the Davies ABD book and an ESP ABD book, but I must say this one has the best questions in it!!!! The CD was awesome, as well!
Review Summary: not like the registry
Date: 2008-10-25
Details: I read the other reviews for this book and thought this was definitely what I needed to pass my abdomen registry. -wrong!! I read and studied every chapter. I took the tests. I did the review cd and took the tests on that as well. I made almost perfect scores on the review tests. Needless to say today when I took the exam I did not pass. The questions on the registry are much harder than in this book and a lot of the questions brought up things this book didn't even mention.
Also I thought the registry had a lot of abdominal vasculature and doppler questions on it. Moreso than I thought it would based on percentages. .. Oh well. Maybe it was just my test .. :(
Review Summary: great buy

Details: I recently book this book before taking the Abdomen exam. I passed with a high score without a problem. I found the review questions to be really helpful, you have just over 400 questions to help you practice. I actually felt that some of the questions in this book were harder than the ARDMS questions I had on my exam. I thought it was a really good investment of my money.
Review Summary: Review Book Images
Date: 2008-05-28
Details: I liked the outlined material, it was in a simple and easy to study form. However, the ARDMS uses ultrasound images frequently on the exam and therefore image review is a very useful tool in preparing. The images in this book were totally undiagnostic. I have been a registered sonographer for many years and could not make out the images. Being that image review is such a critical part of the ARDMS test, I would personally recommend a book that has better images to review.
