This book is a clear concise review of fetal echo. I own it and I recommend it highly. It covers normal and abnormal in a very understandable way. I"m a perinatal sonographer and love this book.

This book was recommended to me by the director of my fellowship training program in Maternal-Fetal Medicine. I was delighted with the practical and immediately applicable pearls of wisdom this book is so full of; it is a must for every scholar of prenatal sonography and can form the basis for further study.

Absolute perfection, visually stunning, truly the ultimate! The brainchild of two of the world leaders in obstetrical sonography, this is a must have for anyone who does prenatal ultrasound. Compact, packed with incredible images (sonographic, schematic and pathologic) as well as detailed tables, and a great aid to the sonologist who encounters a cardiac abnormality. In additon to normal fetal cardiac anatomy and what was covered in the first edition, this edition has a chapter on first trimester fetal echocardiography and lists the first trimester findings for each cardiac defect in the corresponding chapter for that particular defect. In the section on "abnormal hearts", one can find details on all the diagnostic modes and planes necessary to diagnose that particular abnormality. Having this "bible" on fetal echocardiography guides the sonologist as to what to look for and enables the sonologist to ascertain the diagnosis and provide proper counseling to the family pending further evaluation by a pediatric cardiologist...This should unequivocally be "the guide" present at the bedside in every ultrasound unit...

This is an excellent book for review of fetal echo. The chapters are well organized with key infomration reviewed at the end of each chapter. The images are excellent quality. Worth every penny.
