Many advances have been made in the field of obstetrical ultrasound in the last few years. Comprehensive, authoritative, and up-to-date, Textbook on Fetal Ultrasound incorporates this new knowledge and takes a prospective view on new developments for all those working in the field of fetal ultrasound. It draws on the vast clinical experience of a multidisciplinary group of authors who are internationally recognized authorities.
This textbook will be a useful resource not only to all those involved in fetal ultrasound, but also to those providing genetic counseling. It will aid physicians to more easily identify structural malformations in the fetus, or other common obstetrical problems, take the correct diagnostic approaches, make accurate differential diagnoses, and implement the most appropriate procedures in the management of these pregnancies.
