Pocket Atlas of Normal Ultrasound Anatomy

Book excerpt: This popular pocket atlas helps readers rapidly identify key anatomic structures of the neck, abdomen, female pelvis, and male genitalia on ultrasound scans...and shows how to distinguish these structures from artifacts. The thoroughly revised Second Edition features 74 sharp, new images obtained with state-of-the-art ultrasound technology.Each page presents a high-resolution image that is clearly labeled to point out anatomic landmarks. Directly above the image are a key to the labels and a thumbnail illustration that orients the reader to the plane of view (sagittal, axial, or coronal). This format--sharp images, orienting thumbnails, and clear keys--enables readers to identify features with unprecedented speed and accuracy.Praise for the previous edition:"Recommend that this atlas be in the pocket of all neophyte abdominal ultrasonographers and all first-year radiology residents. It should also be available in all radiology departments."--Radiology
