overing every aspect of fetal heart examination and all major cardiac malformations, A Practical Guide to Fetal chocardiography is widely acknowledged as the definitive text in this challenging field.
This award-winning title clearly depicts examples of commonly seen abnormalities and day winning title clearly depicts examples of commonly seen abnormalities and day-to-day cases, as well as rare pathology.
Authored by renowned experts, the fully updated fourth edition is a lavishly illustrated, easy-to-read text designed to serve as a comprehensive reference for all practitioners involved in cardiac imaging.

* Features significant revisions including several new chapters, new artwork, and updated reference lists.

* Discusses disorders in terms of the ultrasound findings with key points summarized at the end of each
chapter. Images are accompanied by clear, colorful schematic drawings that depict cardiac abnormalities.

* Features the addition of Approach to Diagnosis, an algorithm at the end of each chapter to assist
providers in reaching the proper diagnosis.

* Includes numerous tables that outline common and differentiating features of various cardiac
malformations.

* Covers the technical aspects of the cardiac exam in the first half of the text; the second half features
detailed discussions of fetal cardiac malformations, each presented in a practical, methodical format that
