Efficient code reviews during development phase always helps identify the issues earlier and prevent rework and bugs in later stages of the project. For effective code reviews, there is a code review tool available in Visual Studio 2012 which can be used to improve code quality. To use this feature, all your code changes must be moved to TFS repository. Another pre-requisite is that you need to have an SMTP server setup for your TFS server. Without this, code review emails cannot be send to specific reviewers. Below are the related links which helps you getting started on this:
