Book Description

ISBN-10: 0387823255 | ISBN-13: 978-0387823256 | Publication Date: May 1992 | Edition: 1

This atlas brings together a large number of high-quality illustrations of color-coded Doppler sonography (CCDS) studies of the vascular and soft tissue structures of the upper extremity and neck, correlative angiographic images and anatomic diagrams, and succinct summaries of current research into the clinical applications of CCDS. The atlas consists of eight chapters covering an evaluation of the carotid artery, the vertebral artery, the veins of the neck, arm veins, the arteries of the upper extremity, dialysis fistulas and the thyroid and parathyroid glands, as well as technical essentials, physical principles and practical considerations regarding the proper use of color flow Doppler instruments. A major goal in the creation of this book was to summarize in a single volume the large body of information previously available only in numerous articles from radiologic and surgical scientific journals, and to bring this material up to date based on the experience of the authors. In addition to a detailed presentation of normal vascular anatomy and corresponding CCDS images, the atlas contains examples of a large number of pathological conditions in order to provide the reader with a solid understanding of the most common abnormal findings as well as a resource for interpretating unusual cases.

The best Atlas of Color Coded Doppler Sonography I've read yet, and I've read quite a few. Well-written, gripping, and altogether masterful. The dexrous manipulation of digits, the soft touch -- a feat. I couldn't put it down. Two thumbs up!
