Feigenbaum's Echocardiography-7판

The thoroughly revised Seventh Edition of Feigenbaum's Echocardiography reflects recent changes in the technology and
clinical use of echocardiography. Highlights include detailed discussions on the use of three-dimensional
echocardiography and perfusion imaging and new information on the mechanics and utility of Strain and Strain rate
imaging. Many new images complement the state-of-the-art information on technological advances. Current AHA/ACC
guidelines are included for each chapter.
