This handbook was created to assist the medical professional and sonographer to know echo concepts and methods inside a "user friendly" way, to assist them to complete scientific studies and recognize principles to be able to collect just as much clinically practical info as you possibly can with an individual patient. This book is prepared like a really practical and easily readable handbook. Every section highlights the several aspects of echocardiography. Practical suggestions are shown through the book. This textual content is very well illustrated with 165 pictures and graphical pictures.

Review

"Each chapter is well laid out and it is easy to see where the text is
leading. The authors have made good use of lists which are much clearer
than wading through lines of unnecessary prose. The text is liberally
interspersed with well annotated diagrams and illustrations. A picture
can say a thousand words and this has been used to good advantage.
Real-time ultrasound images and Doppler traces are plentiful, are of
good quality and have been reproduced well. I was pleased to see that
all the real-time ultrasound images are reproduced as negatives (white
on black) although the illustration on the cover is a positive image!
The
authors have been successful in making this a practical handbook of
echocardiography and interpretation. It is easy to read and very well
illustrated. There is no attempt to relate echocardiography to other
cardiac imaging modalities and this is no substitute for a cardiology
textbook. Those new to echocardiography should find it helpful as they
build up experience. The more experienced echocardiographer may find it
useful to refer to specific chapters on unfamiliar subjects or use the
references for further study. By today's standards this is good value
for money and would be useful on the shelves of most departments. I
suspect those new to echocardiography will consider purchasing their own
copy."
