Product Description
Now with hundreds of new images, this core text focuses on the two main divisions within sonography: general/abdominal and obstetric/gynecologic. It also provides coverage of vascular ultrasound and an introduction to echocardiography. While the abdominal and vascular sections are organized by body systems, OB/GYN uses a chronologic approach to development during pregnancy and an anatomic approach to gynecologic pathology. Each chapter covers patient history; normal anatomy, including cross-sectional anatomy; ultrasound techniques; pathology; and related laboratory findings.
- Ultrasound Tips offer practical, easy-to-find information on scanning techniques.
- Full-color presentation includes line art, design, and color scans, enhancing the visual appeal and teaching value of the text.
- Pathology tables present clinical findings, lab findings, sonography findings, and differential considerations.
- Key Terms and Definitions at beginning of each chapter highlight the most important information.
- Chapter Objectives and Review Questions open each chapter, and short-answer and essay questions are provided at the end.
- New chapters cover the following:
· Introduction to Physical Findings includes assessment, lab values, and disease principles as they relate to sonography
· Contrast Applications in the Abdomen
· Invasive/Intraoperative Procedures in the Abdomen
· Emergent Ultrasound Procedures
· Musculoskeletal System
· Neonatal Hips
· Neonatal Spine
· Sonographic Evaluation for Infertility
· Sonographic 3D/4D Evaluation of Fetal Anomalies
- Basic and Professional Competencies in Sonography and Standards of Practice
- Hemodynamics
- Portal Hypertension
- HIPAA coverage provides information on how these new regulations affect the clinical environment.
- Ergonomics coverage emphasizes proper scanning technique, helping to avoid injuries from poor ergonomics and repetitive motion.
- Updated sonograms include hundreds of new images from state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment.

 Pertinence to the field of sonography December 6, 1999
Keith A. Mauney (United States)
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
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.
Very comprehensive May 18, 2010

Excellent resource for students learning the field of ultrasonography. Text is very easy to read and understand and is filled with many images to assist in the learning process. Certainly a must for every sonographer's library.
Great Textbook for Diagnostic Ultrasonography July 18, 2001
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
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.
Workbook for TDU September 5, 2010
Amicone (Michigan)
I got this to supplement the textbooks that were required for my Diagnostic Medical Sonograghy classes. This wasn't req'd but it is useful for my class in particular because my instructor's class is really hard! The answers in the back and the tests in the workbook will help and DMS student practice because all we ever do is take exams! Just wish it was cheaper, but I recommend it.
diagnostically? very good February 18, 2009

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.
