Description

This established text covers the full range of obstetric ultrasound examinations that a sonographer would be expected to perform in a general hospital or secondary referral setting, and is the only text that combines the practicalities of learning how to perform these examinations with the information needed to carry them out in a clinical setting. It encourages students to think about their practice and provides the sonographer with the necessary tools to provide a 'gold standard' service.

  • Addresses problems from both practical and clinical viewpoints

  • Scope fully expanded to cover gynaecological ultrasound imaging including:
    • the physiological changes taking place during the menstrual cycle
    • the effects of exogenous hormones on the various ultrasound appearances during the menstrual cycle
    • the ultrasound appearances of common abnormalities of the uterus, ovaries and adnexae
    • the ultrasound assessment of an adnexal mass using a standardized approach
  • New images to reflect the improvements in imaging technology
