Review:
"Fetal abnormalities are presented in a structured, in-depth and reader-friendly manner. The text covers the ultrasound features of the pathology as well as information for contemporary individualised counselling. [...] For each ultrasound view, the corresponding diagnoses are presented. Additionally, a plethora of pictures illustrating affected fetuses with fetal anomalies shortly after termination have been included. [...] In conclusion, this is an attractive, modern textbook that should become essential reading for all practitioners within the multidisciplinary field of fetal medicine."
