Without a deep understanding of what normal anatomy looks like in ultrasound images, you may have a tough time recognizing abnormalities. Thankfully, Sonography: Introduction to Normal Structure and Function, 6th Edition, provides the firm grounding in normal anatomy and physiology that you need from an ultrasound perspective. This highly visual text uses a wealth of ultrasound images accompanied by labeled drawings with detailed legends to increase your comfort with normal anatomy as it appears during scanning. A consistent chapter format also makes the content easy to navigate and reinforces standard protocols for scanning each area of the body.
    • Detailed line drawings accompany most sonograms, reinforcing what you should notice on the scan and offering confirmation if you are uncertain
    • Highly visual content leads with images and uses narrative to support those visuals
    • Quality control protocol information helps you recreate the most optimal scanning settings and techniques
    • Reference charts offer relevant information for types of sonography, including associated physicians, common diagnostic tests, laboratory values, vasculature, and affecting chemicals
    • UPDATED! 100+ images and accompanying illustrations visually clarify key concepts and give you a better picture of what you should see in scans
