Description
Now there is a source of recent information on the basic and clinical usefulness of real-time 3D echocardiography for echocardiographers, cardiologists, cardiac sonographers, and internists. This excellent reference helps clinicians improve pre- and post-surgical planning, attain better measurement of heart function, decrease exam times, and enhance patient communication. An accompanying DVD shows procedures in real time.
Reviews / Votes
"This comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of both live/real time 3D transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography illustrates both normal and pathologic cardiovascular findings ... it is a valuable compendium for both novice and experienced practitioners." (Fr.quote.com, 21 October 2010) The book has a beautiful graphical design and an easy to follow text layout. Most still images are in high-quality color. DVD-based video clips are an extremely useful feature. I had no problem playing clips on the supplied DVD using Windows XP, Windows 7 or Mac OS 10 The clips are cross-referenced to appropriate book sections where readers can get in-depth descriptions of normal and pathological findings Even an echocardiographer inexperienced in 3D ultrasound imaging will easily understand what is depicted in each clip since all relevant cardiac structures and important findings are clearly labeled In summary, Live/Real-Time 3D Echocardiography by Dr. Nanda and colleagues should find place in the library of any modern echocardiographer interested in 3D imaging.
