Six Sigma and Lean-highly regarded improvement methodologies-are discussed in cogent, easily relatable language. Abundant memory aids in the form of mnemonics and tips are interfused throughout the text. The reader-friendly text and tips format, coupled with the well-written Q & A format, enable proficient learning of a large depth and breadth of material. Radiology residents who utilize this rigorous ABR exam prep will gain the confidence to attain top scores on the NIS portion of the boards.
