This review is from: Diagnostic Medical Sonography: Obstetrics and Gynecology (v. 1) (Hardcover)

I used this book when I was a student, and I hated it. Every paragraph was lengthy and it made me MORE confused. I felt like I was reading War and Peace. I remembered ONE thing from this whole textbook. I remember it said to turn down the TGCs to make the ovarian follicles pop out to help you find the ovaries better. That's it. I would save your money on this book and buy the two volume set called Textbook Of Diagnostic Ultrasonography by Sandra Hagen Ansert. That is so much better, and worth your money.
