Customer Reviews

diagnostically? very good

This book is easy to read, has many illustrations, photos of actual ultrasounds and when paired with the workbook of the same name, is a great learning tool. I am thinking of keeping mine to help teach( non-ultrasound) anatomy and physiology.

Great Textbook for Diagnostic Ultrasonography

I have read the previous edition of this book. Compare the fourth edition, several improvements have been made in this edition: Each chapter begins with a list of key terms and definitions. Color illustrations and layout are used. A lot of new ultrasound images are added and the qualities of these images are much better. The text has been retrenched. Important points are put in tables for differentiation. Even there are still a few mistakes in this edition, I believe this is a great book.

Pertinence to the field of sonography

We have instructed over twenty thousand professionals in diagnostic ultrasound and have found this text to be essential to any ultrasound practice. We recommend this text to each of our beginning and intermediate students, regardless of specialty of training or professional experience. Sandra has, over the years, consistently compiled a comprehensive reference for immediate and referential use. You will find it useful from the first day in the field, and for years afterward. Although it is by no means a basic text, its style is eminently readable and easily retained.
