Echocardiographic Anatomy in the Fetus (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Whether in fetal or postnatal life, echocardiographic diagnosis is based on moving images. With recent advances in ultrasound systems, storing multiple digital frames and clips with superb image quality has become a reality. These advances have brought innovative applications into the clinical field and can be integrated into powerful multimedia presentations for teaching. This book has a didactical approach with many projections of high quality echocardiographic images. The CD-ROM accompanying the book presents morphological pictures from tomographic sections of the whole fetal body, combined with high quality dynamic echocardiographic images of normal fetuses and some of the most common congenital heart defects. The extraordinary amount of information provided in this work makes this publication a useful tool for obstetricians, sonographers and pediatric cardiologists.
