Book Description

Here's the 5th Edition of the classic textbook on vascular ultrasound-thoroughly updated to include a new, full-color format, a new co-editor, a new team of contributors, and cutting-edge diagnostic procedures. Five well-organized sections span nearly the entire spectrum of arterial and venous ultrasound, progressing from basic concepts and instrumentation, through cerebral vessels, extremity arteries, and extremity veins, to abdominal vessels, and the pelvis. This 5th Edition also features brand-new coverage of cerebrovascular arteries, peripheral arteries, intravascular techniques, and much more.
  • Organizes each section by clinical rationale, anatomy, examination technique, findings, and interpretation for easy reference.
  • Details all aspects of ultrasound vascular diagnosis, including peripheral veins and arteries, carotid and vertebral arteries,
    abdominal vessels, and transcranial Doppler.
  • Offers chapters on physiological diagnostic techniques, such as plethysmography, segmental pressure examination,
    ankle brachial index, and more.
  • Includes numerous tables that conveniently display examination protocols, normal values, diagnostic parameters, and
    ultrasound findings for selected conditions.
  • Illustrates important techniques with hundreds of lavish line drawings and clinical ultrasound examples.
  • Covers all currently used methods of noninvasive vascular diagnosis in a concise, easy-to-read manner.
  • Offers substantially revised chapters on the management of cerebrovascular and extremity venous disease, assessment
    of carotid stenosis, vertebral and intracranial arteries, and upper occlusive disease.
  • Incorporates many more color Doppler pictures and anatomic diagrams.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best textbook for the vascular tech, September 10, 2008
This review is from: Introduction to Vascular Ultrasonography(Fifth Edition) (Hardcover)
I have taught vascular diagnostic sonography since 1985, and for most of those years the Zwiebel text has been my main textbook. It is written specifically for the practicing vascular tech, and covers all aspects of the field thoroughly. If you're in the biz, or if you're learning to be in the biz, you must have this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great Resource for the Vascular Medicine Physician, January 26, 2009
This review is from: Introduction to Vascular Ultrasonography(Fifth Edition) (Hardcover)
I have purchased this book and read it few times over the last 5 years. I use it primarily as a text book to refer to for the RVS, RVT, RPVI exam. there has allot of books about vascular US since this book was written but none as authoritative or complete.

If you are a practicing physician involved in the field of vascular US this book is a must. some of the vascular technicians I worked with found it a great aid.

If you are studying for a vascular US exam this book is great but it is ot the only book you need as it doesn't cover vascular US physics in depth.
