Full title :Pediatric ultrasound : how, why, and when / edited by Rose de Bruyn.

Summary

Padiatric Ultrasound is an accessible guide which covers the practical aspects of scanning, as well as the role, value and limitations of ultrasound in diagnosing different diseases in children. Pediatric ultrasound differs from adult ultrasound in many respects - the equipment used, the scanning technique, plus, of course, the anatomy and pathology of the patients. The new edition of this popular text in the How, Why and When series provides a framework for the sonographer to use in diagnosis so that the maximum amout of information can be gained from the ultrasound. All the systems where ultrasound examinations are performed are covered, together with the important clinical considerations. Limiting radiation expousure and the number of examinations is key in pediatric radiology and so the importance of deciding ẁhen' to use ultrasound and when to consider other imaging modalities is discussed. --Book Jacket.
