Pocket Atlas of Echocardiography

Thomas Boehmeke, Ralf Doliva1-58890-433-4, 3-13-141241-0, 9781588904331

In diagnostic cardiology, the usefulness and effectiveness of state-of-the-art echocardiography is unsurpassed. This handy atlas includes all of the information you need to navigate the numerous imaging planes that transect the heart with ease and confidence.

Key Features:
– More than 400 illustrations, including, sharp, clear echocardiograms, full-color schematic diagrams, and 3-D images.
– Detailed descriptions of all of the acoustic windows and imaging planes for every echocardiogram.
– All major diseases depicted in B-mode, M-mode, Doppler and color Doppler.
– A practical overview of the patient examination, including imaging and patient positioning.
– All cardiac diseases are shown — valvular heart disease, coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathies, prosthetic valves, carditis, septal defects, hypertensive heart diseases, intracardiac masses.
– Hundreds of vivid mnemonic devices and useful tips to help you locate, name, and remember all anatomical structures and features.

Intelligent design:
– Integrated illustrations and succinct text on every page.
– Fits in your pocket for rapid reference and review.
– Durably designed to withstand everyday use.
