Recenzii
“The intended audience includes sonographers and echocardiographers. … Extensive topics ranging from the physics of echocardiography, to three-dimensional echocardiography, to the use of echocardiography to assess heart transplants are well covered. … a wonderfully thorough resource for echocardiography board review. … Readers who prefer an atlas or outline format you will find this to be an excellent resource for echocardiography. The topics it covers are important and wide-ranging, and the information is presented succinctly and with full-color, highly detailed, albeit small, images.” (David J. Homan, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2012)
“No heart specialist should be without this book, which expounds on advanced and sophisticated interpretation of echocardiographic data. Case Based Echocardiography liberally uses images and actual patient histories to teach the reader how to interpret echo results. Vital to any health-care professional who uses echocardiography in the daily course of their practice.” (The Electric Review, October, 2012)
“This book … is a collection of lecture notes around the echocardiography syllabus. … find a home in the library of the larger echo department to be picked up when a brief text is required to address a particular case-based echo problem.” (Guy Lloyd, Cardiology News, February/March, 2013)
Notă biografică
The authors are all internationally renowned experts in echocardiography and have considerable experience in training echocardiography staff in all aspects of best practice.
Textul de pe ultima copertă
Echocardiography remains the most commonly used cardiac imaging modality in clinical care and is now considered an extension of the stethoscope with other physicians, such as interventional cardiologists and internists, often viewing and interpreting echocardiograms. Technology advances in echocardiography such as tissue Doppler/strain and 3D echocardiography have further extended its clinical scope, while cardiac imaging is rapidly extending beyond the heart with laboratories now incorporating various vascular imaging protocols as part of their clinical activity. Lastly, the emerging focus on continuing education and certification in echocardiography puts pressure on physicians to keep abreast of basic and new techniques in echocardiography Case-Based Echocardiography: Fundamentals And Clinical Practice has been developed to offer a succinct guide to the discipline, incorporating topics ranging from fundamental physical principles to important cardiac pathologies and novel technologies. It has been designed to provide this knowledge in a novel, condensed format, enabling easy and quick reference to topics and also enables its use in a bedside situation to enhance performance and interpretation of echocardiographic data. The content will also assist readers in preparing for competency tests in echocardiography such as the echocardiography boards. To give the reader the benefit of most meaningful and up-to-date content, Dr Abraham has assembled a group of renowned experts in echocardiography with substantial experience in various specific echocardiography technologies. The result is a compact yet highly informative clinical handbook that provides as much if not more knowledge than most textbooks with a significantly less investment of time.
