the field of Obstretrics and is not only a work of reference for those
who are teaching the basic elements and uses of this procedure, but
also, and in particular, for those who are the practitioners of US in
this subspeciality.'' -- Journal of Clinical Imaging_x000D_ _x000D_

for diagnosis and treatment. It would guide sonologists to the
appropriate diagnosis when there is a fetal abnormality. In summary,
this textbook is very well written, provides a wealth of information and
a very up to date review of sonography in modern obstetrics. It is very
well illustrated.. It is a vitally important textbook to have in any
department performing obstetrics ultrasound."--ASUM Ultrasound
