Atlas Of Fetal Ultrasound

The present book is an illustrated guide on fetal medicine, including a wealth of normal and pathological/malformations ultrasound images, throughout the whole pregnancy. Thus, the book intends to fill two gaps in once: The lack of a material discussing the basic principles of fetal ultrasound, which are the basement for a more efficient learning in fetal medicine. . The need for a thorough approach in fetal medicine, presenting both normal and pathological imaging, allowing a detailed evaluation of clinical conditions of importance in prenatal care and follow up. The Atlas of Ultrasound Imaging is an up to date guide to all obstetricians, gynecologists and pediatricians who intend to upgrade their knowledge in fetal medicine, as well as to any other professional, professor, student or research interested in fetal ultrasound.

Now in its second edition, Atlas of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology is ideal as a visually-oriented reference and comprehensive tutorial for expanding your knowledge of ultrasound. Developed from one of the best and broadest sonographic collections in the field, this powerful atlas provides images and authoritative commentary covering all aspects of obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound. The text is integrated with over 200 video clips available online to enhance diagnostic skills and learn about ultrasound-guided procedures. Whether you're a radiologist, obstetrician, gynecologist or sonographer this exciting visual resource is a valuable tool for achieving diagnostic accuracy for your patients. Inside you'll find: Large, clear illustrations - more than 110 0, most new to this edition - and informative text highlighting normal anatomy and pathological conditions, interventional procedures, and much more. Fully searchable website with access to the complete content of the book and integrated video clips. Over 200 real-time clips on the companion website that add another dimension to illustrate many sonographic abnormalities. Guidance from two well-known experts lets you benefit from the experience of Drs. Doubilet and Benson - both known for their research in obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound.

Packed with more sonographic images than ever before, the third edition of the Atlas of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology helps you better understand and interpret sonographic imagery, and improve diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound images. This comprehensive visual tutorial is split into two distinct sections: obstetrical ultrasound and gynecological ultrasound. Each section covers normal and abnormal anatomy, pathology, and interventional procedures.

The fetal period of human growth and development has become an area of intense study in recent years, due in large part to the development of diagnostic ultrasound. More than 2,000 articles have been published in the last five years describing anatomy and pathology in utero, as reflected in sonographic images. Yet, no stan dard reference exists to correlate these images with fetal gross anatomy and at tempts to draw parallels from adult structure have often led to false assumptions. The dictum "the newborn is not a miniature adult" is all the more valid for the fetus. This text aims to provide a comprehensive reference for normal sectional anat omy correlated with in utero ultrasound images. In addition, magnetic resonance images of therapeutically aborted or stillborn fetuses are paired with similar gross sections to serve as a foundation upon which current in vivo studies may build. Lastly, a miscellaneous section illustrates several anatomic points useful in the understanding of fetal anatomy. These points include the changing anatomy of the fetal brain during gestation and the anatomy of the meninges, the fetal heart, and ductus venosus. It is our hope that this atlas will provide a clear picture of fetal anatomy, rectify some of the confusion which exists in antenatal diagnosis, and stimulate further interest in fetal development.

This atlas presents the sonographic features of the normal fetal abdomen at different gestational ages, and describes the anomalies of different organ systems in the fetal abdomen. It covers the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, and abdominal wall defects with the help of numerous ultrasound images, and also addresses differential diagnosis using various sonographic images of the fetal abdomen, as well as effective diagnostic approaches for these conditions.

Beautifully illustrated with high-quality ultrasound images, an ideal beginner's guide; should be at hand in every ultrasound department. Now in its third edition, the Color Atlas of Ultrasound Anatomy presents a comprehensive and systematic overview of normal sonographic anatomy of the abdominal and pelvic regions, essential for locating and recognizing the organs, anatomic landmarks, and topographic relationships. In its practical double-page format, ultrasound images and corresponding drawings are arranged by organs and scanning paths in more than 300 pairs, demonstrating probe positioning, the resulting sectional image, the anatomical structures, and the location of the scanning plane in the organ. Special features: In gallbladder, spleen, and kidneys chapters, revised and expanded series of ultrasound images with corresponding drawings Now with coverage of transvaginal imaging of the uterus and ovaries and transrectal imaging of the prostate Offers guidance on scanning paths and standard sectional planes for abdominal scanning, with photos demonstrating probe placement on the body and drawings showing the organs that can be visualized Helps grasp the relation between three-dimensional organ systems and their two-dimensional representation in ultrasound imaging Front and back cover flaps displaying normal sonographic dimensions of organs for easy reference Covering all relevant anatomic structures, important measurable parameters, and normal values, and including both transverse and longitudinal scans, this pocket-sized reference is an essential, high-yield learning tool for medical students, radiology residents, ultrasound technicians, and medical sonographers.

Here is a complete and convenient guide to the normal sonographic appearances of the embryo and fetus and its uterine environment. This handy atlas will provide you with a thorough knowledge of normal fetal anatomy and better enable you to promptly recognize and diagnose abnormalities. The images in this atlas were produced with state-of-the-art high-resolution ultrasound imaging systems and depict a spectrum of normal anatomy encountered during pregnancy. Coverage includes the fetal environment - the cervix, uterus, placenta, and umbilical cord, the successive stages of embryonic development; and the normal appearances of fetal organ systems. The appendix provides a set of basic biometry tables for easy reference and daily use. This pocket atlas is an essential resource for all health care professionals who perform or interpret obstetric ultrasound studies, including radiologists, obstetricians and gynecologists, sonographers, geneticists, nurses, and genetic counselors.

Designed as a comprehensive resource of research, review and analysis of measurements of organs and foetal parts, when using ultrasound. The book covers both standard and seldom-used measurements in a range of ultrasonographic applications.

This book systematically covers the anatomy and pathology of the fetal brain and spine. It features a veritable treasure trove of ultrasound images illustrating every common finding, as well as rare lesions that are encountered in clinical practice. Wherever possible, it also includes 3D ultrasound and fetal MRI correlations.
