New!
Revised and Updated Full-Color Edition now available!
Winner of the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Silver Award for excellence in book editorial and design!
This revised and updated 4th Edition of Don Ridgway’s unabashedly practical and famously unique how-to guide to vascular scanning will astound and delight both beginners and veterans who are cross-training in vascular ultrasound. Like previous editions, this one contains all of the features that have made this book so popular and useful.
Additional highlights that have endeared Don Ridgway to thousands of readers, propelling his how-to-scan guide up the ratings chart at Amazon.com:
 How to scan all of the vascular systems
The Other Vascular Diagnostic Modalities
Those Darn Doppler Angles
The Important and Somewhat Tricky Bifurcation Maneuver
Seven Tips toward Good Probemanship
Getting Stuck: A Word about the Flop Sweats
In this first all-color edition, the emphasis is on showing, not just telling: You will find dozens of new full-color technical and anatomic illustrations; 150+ duplex scans, color flow images, and Doppler waveforms; and scores of schematics, cross-sections, ultrasound images, and photographs—more than 700 illustrations in all. As praise for the previous editions suggests, you won’t find anything else like this guide for the relative novice: extremely reader-friendly, lavishly illustrated, and focused squarely on the real-world skill-building needs of both budding vascular sonographers and seasoned veterans.
As a welcome bonus, the SDMS-approved 18-credit CME quiz at the end of the book can be combined with any of Davies’ other 12-credit CME activities to help busy sonographers meet their ARDMS triennium requirements in two easy steps.
