In the latest addition to the BSAVA imaging Manuals series, this book
provides an overview of the physical principles of ultrasonography and
discusses the equipment required as well as the general principles of
the ultrasound examination. It then moves on to discuss body systems in
individual chapters, with each chapter following a similar format:
• Indications
• Comparison of ultrasonography with radiography and CT
• Imaging technique
• Normal ultrasonographic appearance
• Interpretation of disease.
The Manual is extensively illustrated with images of both normal anatomy
and the abnormalities associated with disease. In addition, as the
moving image is such a vital part of interpreting ultrasound studies, a
DVD-ROM featuring video clips relevant to the individual chapters
accompanies this Manual.
