An Atlas of Neonatal Brain Sonography, 2nd Edition (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This Atlas covers the entire spectrum of brain disease as studied with ultrasound, illustrated throughout with superb-quality images. It is aimed at neonatologists and radiologists confronted with everyday clinical questions on the neonatal ward. Most newborn brain disorders can be identified with ultrasound; this book will therefore be particularly useful in settings with limited MRI facilities. Prenatal ultrasound specialists will also find it valuable as a postnatal reference in their field of interest. Suggestions for differential diagnosis accompany all the sonographic findings, guiding the clinician in proceeding from an abnormal image to a diagnosis. This second edition of the Atlas has been brought up to date to include the many advances in technique and interpretation that have been made in the past decade. The images have been replaced with new ones of higher quality, and all the line artwork has been standardised and improved.

Rezensionen

"It is times such as this that an atlas showcasing clear examples of pathology can be turned to for guidance and pieced together with physical examination and behavioral assessments of the infant to determine the proper course of further treatment. This book should be kept handy in the newborn nursery, neonatal intensive care, and pediatric clinics following up with children born with any type of congenital or acquired brain injury." (MedicalScienceBooks.com, 2012)

"This is a superb book with wonderful illustrations and is probably the most comprehensive text on neonatal cranial sonography." (Doody's, October 2010)

"This revised edition not only includes improved ultrasonic imaging as a result of technological advancements but also highlights the advantages of using additional acoustic windows for greater visualisation of the neonatal brain. The author's foresight in combining the sonographic images with the far superior image resolution of Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows the reader a more accurate reflection of the underlying pathology in question. Scattered throughout each chapter is additional diagrams, specimen photographs, schematics and tables to give a well rounded but succinct synopsis of the intended subject discussed ...I would highly recommend this atlas accompany the clinician during any cranial ultrasound examination of the newborn as the overall layout allows for quick referencing and can only improve the quality of the examination."
