This is a teaching manual to aid the junior doctor in the interpretation of neonatal emergency X-rays. It offers a series of case studies primarily of clinical problems in the chest and abdomen. As the reader progresses through the manual, the case studies become increasingly more complex and difficult. The cases can be approached also via the book's extensive index, so in addition to its teaching function this manual provides a useful revision source for those preparing for postgraduate examinations. Aimed particularly at trainee neonatologists/paediatricians and radiologists, this will also be relevant to trainee radiographers and neonatal nurses.
