Diagnostic Imaging of Fetal AnomaliesWritten by the world's preeminent authorities on diagnostic ultrasound, the Second Edition of this bestseller guides readers through the use of ultrasound to detect and identify birth defects--including heart malformations, kidney obstructions, intestinal blockages, lung abnormalities, and more. The book offers up-to-date advice on what to look for, given a certain risk or clinical history, and how to perform and interpret the ultrasound examination. More than 1,600 images--including full-color throughout--provide a true-to-life view of ultrasound findings. Each anomaly is discussed in an easy-to-follow format that covers characteristic features...pathogenesis and etiology...differential diagnosis...prognosis...and management. This edition includes brief tables of teratogens and information on genetic markers. |

The book assisted me in a complicated case of an atypical left hypoplastic heart syndrome. Very useful in those rare atypical congenital heart disease cases where ultrasound is paramount.
