This unique book is written specifically for surgeons. But that’s not all.
Edited by a surgeon and a gastroenterology specialist, it’s relevant to both
these disciplines. What’s more, it’s comprehensive and detailed: it covers
everything from the technical basics, to emergency surgical ultrasound, to
possible further diagnostic procedures. A truly practical guide Over 850
high-quality illustrations help to put the theory into practice. And explanatory
drawings next to each ultrasound picture make it easy for even the inexperienced
eye to interpret images. Clear, concise — and easy to use Information is broken
down into clear sections. Each section focuses on the surgical ultrasound of a
specific organ system, and is written by a proven expert in the field.
Topics include:
- The acute abdomen
- Thoracic and abdominal trauma
- Endoscopic ultrasound
- Doppler and color-coded Duplex ultrasound
- Transplantation ultrasound
- Intraoperative ultrasound
