A practical, visual, authoritative quick-reference guide to mastering echocardiography The most efficient and thorough way to learn echocardiography is visually. By seeing and comparing different variations of important echo findings, you shorten the learning process and build retention at the same time. Covering the essential techniques, standards, and cardiac disorders you need to know, Practical Echocardiography for Cardiac Sonographers is an innovative guide that takes you step by step through the scanning process in different disorders, helps you accurately interpret and clinically apply echocardiographic information, describes the physics of ultrasound in easy-to-understand language, and covers common and rare relevant cardiac conditions. Formatted in a way that makes finding the right answers quick and easy, Echocardiography for Cardiac Sonographers delivers comprehensive fully rounded, interactive education that will get you up to speed on this critically important discipline in no time. This comprehensive guide covers: Heart Failure Coronary Artery Disease Aortic Valve Disease Mitral valve Disease Prosthetic Valves Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Pericardial Disease Endocarditis Cardiac Tumors and Masses Pulmonary Disorders Tricuspid and Pulmonic Valves Aorta and Congenital Heart Disorders Stroke
