In the hands of a skilled operator, ultrasound scanning is a simple and easy procedure. However, reaching that level of proficiency can be a long and tedious process. Commended by the British Medical Association, Practical Ultrasound, Third Edition incorporates up-to-date techniques and protocols, focusing on the scans regularly encountered in a busy ultrasound department. This book provides everything novice practitioners need to know to become competent and skilled in scanning.
Beginning with the general principles of ultrasound scanning and a guide to using the ultrasound machine, this book provides clear instructions on how to perform scans supplemented by high-quality images and handy tips. Organized according to anatomical site, the chapters include a review section on useful anatomy, scan protocol presented step by step, and a section on common pathology. Maintaining the popular format of the first and second editions, each chapter contains examples of common and clinically relevant pathologies and notes on the salient features of these conditions.
The authors’ precise approach puts an immense amount of knowledge within easy reach, making it an ideal aid for learning the practicalities of ultrasound.
Key Features:
- Follows an appealing organization of chapters, developing fundamental knowledge of how to operate the ultrasound machine before moving on to the practicalities of how to scan each anatomical area
- Presents comprehensive, authoritative, and up‑to‑date text, integrating anatomical knowledge, practical tips from experts, and common clinical pathologies that are important to recognize
- Incorporates high‑quality ultrasound images with corresponding line drawings indicating the key points to spot
