Ultrasound Diagnosis of Fetal Anomalies

::: 상품 설명 :::


Recent advances in ultrasound technology have dramatically advanced prenatal
care, and its use is now standard. Medical professionals today can
accurately detect fetal structural irregularities, and as a result, provide
higher quality prenatal and postnatal patient care.

This well-referenced teaching atlas is a comprehensive and practical
overview of fetal ultrasound technology, providing up-to-date diagnosis and
examination guidelines for the most clinically important anomalies and
diseases. Incorporating an impressive collection of sonographic images and
plates, the book provides an invaluable visual aid in recognizing even the
most difficult-to-interpret ultrasound findings.

Key features:

- Nearly 500 high-quality sonograms and images that illustrate frequent and
rare fetal irregularities, including pathophysiologic disorders
- Tips for: avoiding common image misinterpretations; scanning techniques;
and optimal times for ultrasound examinations
- Special chapters on chromosomal disorders and their soft markers, post-
infectious malformations, and multiple pregnancies
- Unique design that allows quick and easy access to information
- Useful data and advice for concerned parents, including Internet resources
and support groups

No professional can afford to be without this up-to-date information.
Incorporating the graphic strength of an atlas with the educational utility
of a textbook, ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSIS OF FETAL ANOMALIES is essential for
helping specialists to reliably identify prenatal irregularities and disease
for the best results.
