About this title

Review

This is a large-format book with excellent and abundant ultrasonic images that clearly illustrate the described findings. This book is a pleasure to read. This book accomplishes its stated goal of describing and demonstrating the current state of gynecologic ultrasound imaging with its encyclopedic extent, prolific references, copious images, and manageable size. It can serve as either an overall review of obstetric ultrasound to be read in its entirety or a reference in the reading room when specific questions arise. Considering the lavish imaging and use of color, as well as the depth of coverage, the price is reasonable. Anyone interested in obstetric ultrasound would be well served by this book.--Radiology'A complete bibliography, greatly enriched since the first edition, accompanies almost all the chapters. This important book presents the current knowledge of the role of US in the field of Obstretrics and is not only a work of reference for those who are teaching the basic elements and uses of this procedure, but also, and in particular, for those who are the practitioners of US in this subspeciality.' -- Journal of Clinical ImagingWill provide a very good guide to practitioners using ultrasound for diagnosis and treatment. It would guide sonologists to the appropriate diagnosis when there is a fetal abnormality. In summary, this textbook is very well written, provides a wealth of information and a very up to date review of sonography in modern obstetrics. It is very well illustrated. It is a vitally important textbook to have in any department performing obstetrics ultrasound.--ASUM Ultrasound Bulletin
