Atlas of Ultrasound Measurements

Radiologists who use ultrasound are plagued with a variety of contradictory data regarding the correct measurements of organs and foetal parts. This book is intended as a comprehensive resource of research, review and analysis of measurements. It includes coverage of standard and seldom-used measurements in full range of ultrasonographic applications. Examples are featured with nearly 300 sonograms of each of the measurements with variations. The book opens with an introduction on understanding measurements and proceeds to cover specific areas in more detail, including the head and neck, echocardiography, the abdomen, gynaecology and obstetrics, with coverage of the three trimesters of pregnancy and multiple gestations. The work pulls together charts, tables and other information relating to measurements in all areas of the body, with special emphasis on measurements thought to be the most appropriate.
