“This is a definitive guide to help clinicians make evidence-based decisions when ordering radiology imaging in the emergency setting. … This is an important resource for any clinician that provides acute or emergency care. … With a very deep dive into all of the evidence related to clinical questions and applications, this book would be of great utility to any radiologist, physician, or midlevel provider in the emergency setting.” (Michael D. Zwank, Doody's Book Reviews, December 21, 2019)
