Diagnostic Ultrasound: Vascular

Description:


Develop a solid understanding of ultrasound and evolving vascular ultrasound practices with this practical, point-of-care reference in the popular Diagnostic Ultrasound series. Written by leading experts in the field, the second edition of Diagnostic Ultrasound: Vascular offers detailed, clinically oriented coverage of anatomy, techniques, and diagnoses in this complex area. Featuring more than 1,750 images and full-color illustrations throughout, this edition showcases vascular ultrasound techniques across 4 different types of ultrasound, including details regarding imaging artifacts. Diagnostic pearls and pitfalls accompany the detailed sonographic descriptions of vascular disease and anomalies regularly encountered in the head and neck, chest and abdomen (including transplants), and extremities.

Features:

• Provides a wide range of anatomic detail, technical factors, and diagnostic criteria to guide accurate application of ultrasound throughout the body
• Covers new and evolving techniques such as the increasing use of microbubble imaging to enhance image resolution, distinguish vessels more clearly, and minimize noise and background signals
• Details the latest information across several ACR RADS criteria, and contains extensive new material from the LI-RADS, GB-RADS, and transplant criteria, which now include Doppler ultrasound with its noninvasive methodology rated highly for appropriate use
• Reflects an increased use of Doppler extremity evaluations due to ongoing COVID-19 diagnoses and a higher incidence of venous thrombosis
• Contains updated ACR Appropriateness Criteria regarding the new “highly appropriate” ratings, as well as new Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) recommendations in numerous diagnosis chapters
• Contains a gallery of typical and atypical ultrasound appearances covering a wide spectrum of disease, correlated with CT and MR imaging where appropriate, and detailed artistic renderings
• Features image-rich chapters on vascular ultrasound techniques, covering grayscale, color, power, and spectral (pulsed) Doppler imaging, as well as imaging artifacts
• Contains time-saving reference features such as succinct and bulleted text, a variety of test data tables, a Key Facts section that begins in each chapter, annotated images, and an extensive index
• An ideal reference for radiologists, sonographers, vascular surgeons, and those who are training in these fields
• Includes an digital version that enables you to access all text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud
