3.		A Wavelet Tour of Signal Processing, Third Edition: The Sparse Way from Academic Press Price: $42.54 Customer Review: Don't be fooled by the word "Tour" in the title; this is not an introductory book. You're going to need to have taken some college level calculus/discrete math courses (and remember them) to get more than a surface level understanding of signal processing from this book. Download the first chapter... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Review Questions for MRI from Wiley-Blackwell Price: $33.37 Customer Review: Received this book a few weeks before I took the MRI exam.

5.		Digital Image Processing (3rd Edition) from Prentice Hall Price: $99.95 Customer Review: I took image processing in 2002 and this book was dated then. I opened it only to do homework.

9.		Lippincott's Magnetic Resonance Imaging Review from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Price: $35.77 Customer Review: A friend recommended this book during my studies. I don't think I would have passed without it. Definitely harder questions than in the yellow Faulkner book. It has a practice registry in the back that I found helpful.
