Following the development of gray-scale imaging, real-time scanning, Doppler examination, and high-frequency sonography, endosonography is one of the latest major breakthroughs in the history of diagnostic ultrasound. Although early attempts at inserting ultrasound transducers in natural cavities of the body can be traced back more than two decades, only in the past few years has technology allowed the development and commercialization of effective, easy-to-use endosono­ scopic probes. Because the transducer can be placed in direct contact with or close to lesions, high frequencies (up to ~2…mehr

Following the development of gray-scale imaging, real-time scanning, Doppler examination, and high-frequency sonography, endosonography is one of the latest major breakthroughs in the history of diagnostic ultrasound. Although early attempts at inserting ultrasound transducers in natural cavities of the body can be traced back more than two decades, only in the past few years has technology allowed the development and commercialization of effective, easy-to-use endosono­ scopic probes. Because the transducer can be placed in direct contact with or close to lesions, high frequencies (up to ~2 MHz) can be used, yielding cross-sectional images of unsurpassed resolution. The availability of specially designed intracorporeal probes for specific natural cavities that are routinely explored by conventional (optical) endoscopy or palpation has significantly expanded the diagnostic applications of sonography. Transrectal and transvaginal examinations are now performed routinely in many institutions, and virtually all sonographic equipment manufac­ turers have in their line of products at least one endorectal and one endovaginal transducer. Most endosonoscopic probes connect to existing scanners, and for radiology departments, the invest­ ment for transrectal or transvaginal scanning will usually be limited to the purchase of the specific probe. In this book, clinical applications of endosonography (excluding transesophageal echocardio­ graphy) are covered by European and North American experts. Current equipment and techniques of examination are described in detail to help newcomers get started in the field of endosonography.

Rezensionen
`Für den Ultraschallspezialisten, der sich auch mit der Endosonographie befassen möchte, ist das vorliegende Werk, das sich durch klaren Text und sehr gutes Bildmaterial auszeichnet, eine hervorragende Einstiegslektüre.'
Fortschritte auf dem Gebiete der Röntgenstrahlen 154 (2) 1991

`This book will be valuable for radiologists and other specialists who are considering entering endosonography.'
Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal 42 (2) April 1991

`This book is recommended to practicing radiologists and clinicans who want to begin working in the field of endosonography and desire a basic overview of this imaging modality.'
Gastrointestinal Radiology 17, 1992
`... recommended for anyone who desires a rapid overview of endosonography. In general, the test is well written, and the entire volume can be read easily in one day.'
American Journal of Roentgenology, December 1990
`Overall, this is an interesting book that will dazzle the reader unaccustomed to endocavitary ultrasound by the resolution that can be achieved. ... the radiologist who wants to keep abreast of technological progress will want to read the book ...'
