highly recommended

One of the most helpful books for a junior radiology resident

The challenges that a person faces as a junior radiology resident can be intimidating. This book will be beneficial to a budding sonographer earlier in the educational process, also. Ultrasound is a skill that has a high learning curve but this book truly levels the playing field. Organized by Organs and vascular structures, this book is an essential book in your library.

Transducer placement and corresponding sonographic anatomy is outlined in a clear and concise format. Vascular anatomy is well illustrated. The quality of images is excellent and is cross referenced with a schematic image.

My major criticism is outlining the keys to anatomy at the start of the chapter, as opposed to being key on its respective page. However, this does not detract from this books utility.

I highly recommend this book.

Colour Atlas of Ultrasound Anatomy

I recommend this book to a beginner sonographer. It assists students by clearly labeling anatomy on both ultrasound images and accompanying diagrams that are located next to the ultrasound images. This book has assisted me in learning clinical anatomy. The diagrams really help. The only problem with this book is the fact that the diagrams are labeled with numbers and the captions/descriptions of what the numbers mean is located on a separate page. This causes the reader to keep having to turn back to the captions page if they don't know what organ they are looking at in the images. The book is organized into separate sections "pancreas, gall bladder, vessels, liver etc". The price also is a bonus. It is well worth it!

A good book for US beginners

Color Atlas of Ultrasound Anatomy is a good book, when starting to do abdominal ultrasound scans. However it soon becomes quite useless, when you get some experience. But after that it can still be used for checking the normal dimensions of anatomical structures. I was disappointed that the book doesn't really help you locate the bile duct, even though that is one of the big challenges to me. Overall a good guide to ultrasoud anatomy.

excellent

I bought this book in combination with the textbook by the same author for self-teaching (see my review there).

This brilliant pocket guide helps you to grasp the connection between three-dimensional organ systems and their two-dimensional representation in ultrasound imaging. Through dynamic illustrations and clarifying text, it allows you to: - Recognize, name, and confidently locate all organs, landmarks, and anatomical details of the abdomen -Examine all standard planes, including transverse and longitudinal scans for regions of sonographic interest (including the thyroid gland) - Understand topographic relationships of organs and structures in all three spatial planes This invaluable text is ideal for the beginner, providing a rapid orientation to all key topics. It includes: - Over 250 fully labeled image quartets, each showing: the preferred location of the transducer on the body; the resulting image; a labeled drawing of the image, keyed to anatomic structures; and a small 3-D drawing showing the location of the scanning plane in the organ. - Body markers with information on transducer handling and positioning for each sonogram - Over 250 rules of thumb and key concepts - All relevant landmarks, measurable parameters, and normal values Packed with beautiful graphics and precise text, this is the essential resource that anyone involved in ultrasound radiography needs.
