Happily, The Material Is Also Very Readable And Should Serve As An Excellent Textbook ( ahtun )
"Although there are a number of excellent books dealing with skeletal radiology, the addition of these volumes to the literature is more than welcome.
The unique format and the approach taken by Drs. Yochum and Rowe should make this book particularly valuable as a reference source.
HAPPILY, THE MATERIAL IS ALSO VERY READABLE AND SHOULD SERVE AS AN EXCELLENT TEXTBOOK.
As an educator I am especially pleased to have the chapter dealing with principles of radiological interpretation included since this material in detail is not found elsewhere....."
[from the book of the foreword by Joseph W. Howe, D.C., D.A.C.B.R., F.I.C.C., Professor and Chairman, Radiology Department, Los Angeles College of Chiropractic]

This is the one!
An exhaustive text on skeletal radiology. Though my experience is limited, it would certainly seem that if its not in here we don't know about it yet...perhaps thats too great a generalization but this text will definitely prove beneficial beyond the classroom as many doctors can attest.

helpful for resident's quick review ( noaudi )
useful radiographic textbook for the orthopaedic surgeon. contains short overview of the disease described in each chapter and a lot of x-rays demonstrating radiographic findings. we found it useful for our residents before exams and during daily work.

Essentials of Skeletal Radiology vol 2
Very good book and since i'm a student at RMIT in melbourne australia and terry yochum was once a teacher here, he gave us a visit and lectured from his book. I recommend this book to anyone who is doing any form of skeletal radiology.

Best radiology book on the market, great for nat'l boards
I graduated chiropractic school this year. I used this book in school and found this it to be filled with lots of info on soft and hard tissue pathology. The radiographs are excellent in this book. Every condition from spinal bifida occulta to fibrous dysplasia is described with the utmost detail. Every chapter has a helpful summary that summarizes all the important points of each condition. I also used this book to help me study for Part II, III and IV of the National Boards. However, if you really want a great book to study for the national boards do what my study group and I did, get the following:
National Board of Chiropractic Part II Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers by Patrick Leonardi
National Board of Chiropractic Part III Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Patrick Leonardi
National Board of Chiropractic Part IV Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers (Volume 1) and (Volume 2)
The questions in these last 4 study guides are right on with the kind of questions encountered on the National Boards. These 5 books contributed greatly to helping my study group and I pass the boards. For example the Part IV Study Guide had great sections on chiropractic technique, clinical impression and x-ray diagnosis. It presented the questions just like on the exam. These 5 books are must buys.
