Ultrasound of Congenital Fetal Anomalies-2판

Features
뷞ncludes new coverage on imaging the fetus in the first trimester
뷪akes an approach oriented to practical problems
뷖orrelates with MRI scans and color clinical images for additional clarity

Summary
The most frequently asked questions that confront the fetal medicine trainee/expert on a daily basis are 밒s the
finding real or merely an artifact??and 밒s the diagnosis correct?? However, to be able to find the description of
an abnormal ultrasound finding in a textbook, one generally has to search by the definite diagnosis, which has not been
done as yet.


This uneasy feeling was the first factor that directed the layout of Ultrasound of Congenital Fetal Anomalies:
Differential Diagnosis and Prognostic Indicators, Second Edition. Copiously illustrated, the book displays fetal
anomalies by scanning view and descriptions of all major ultrasound planes, detailing what can be considered a normal
view and what cannot.


See What뭩 New in the Second Edition:


뷙arly detection of fetal anomalies (1214 weeks)
뷫ltrasound in fetal infections and in twins
뷪he nuchal translucency issue, the newest intracranial translucency as well as the range of congenital anomalies
detectable at this gestational age
뷙xpanded coverage of heart anomalies, including arrhythmias and early fetal echocardiography


The author뭩 mission continues to be to provide guidance on how to quickly recognize and diagnose congenital fetal
anomalies, beginning at the beginning with ultrasound sigh all the way through to final diagnosis.
