This user-friendly second edition provides a fully up-dated and practical introduction to gynaecological ultrasound. It describes and explains background anatomy and physiology, instrumentation and how to make the best use of equipment. Emphasis is placed on how to maximise image quality, and how to recognise normal and pathological features. The volume also assesses other relevant diagnostic techniques and various management strategies, and evaluates the role of ultrasound as part of patient management. It includes chapters on pathology of the uterus, ovaries and adnexae, paediatric and trauma cases, together with management of infertility and other gynaecological perspectives of patient management. Illustrated throughout with numerous high-quality ultrasound images and line drawings, many of them new for this latest edition, this is essential reading for practitioners in training, including radiologists, gynaecologists and sonographers.
'All the chapters are well written, illustrated and referenced, and I find it hard to identify any significant deficiency in this book, given its size, price and ambitions. In summary, an excellent book that will give any trainee a good start in this field, and also a handy quick reference for more experienced practitioners.' Doctors.net.uk
