New and unique, this very well-illustrated book by Charlotte Henningsen and 28 contributing experts explains ultrasound as it is practiced—by clinical scenario, including presenting complaints, patient symptoms, rule-out orders, and the like. Rather than chapters on organ systems, here ultrasound is presented as it is practiced in real life by real sonographers dealing with real problems: right upper quadrant pain, lost IUD, hematuria, breast mass, neck mass, uncertain last menstrual period, bleeding with pregnancy, pulsatile abdominal mass, epigastric pain, R/O renal failure, pediactric mass, etc.
The book is divided into four main parts—Abdomen, Gynecology, Obstetrics, and Superficial Structures—and covers them thoroughly. Substantial chapters on breast ultrasound and neonatal neurosonography will please registry candidates, students, and practitioners alike. So will the last section on miscellaneous clinical situations and conditions, including carotid artery disease, hip dysplasia, and leg pain.
Each chapter begins, proceeds, and concludes in the same clinically relevant format:
 Clinical scenario
Objectives
Glossary of terms
Pathological conditions
Sonographic findings
Case studies for discussion
Study questions
References and Bibliography
Reader-friendly tables and boxed information highlight key concepts and information, and a wealth of images and schematic illustrations clarify sonographic anatomy and findings.
We like this book! It develops and promotes critical thinking when and where it counts. At the same time it is a well-formatted quick reference for departments, a clinically oriented textbook for students heading out to clinical sites, and a valuable adjunct to registry prep—specifically with regard to the applied-knowledge questions that typify the ARDMS exams. It's also a very nice complement to the Davies mock exams—available both in book and CD-ROM formats. Ultrasound educators: Call for information about the image collection available on CD-ROM. Mosby. 1,100+ illustrations, 36 color plates. 550 pp.
