Reseña o resumen
For the ultrasound practitioner it is now more important than ever to have a rigorous understanding of fetal anatomy and development. The Fetus in Three Dimensions publishes a selection of very high-quality ultrasound images of the fetus alongside embryological preparations and fetoscopy images. This unique comparative technique will be an essential educational tool and work of reference for all involved in fetal ultrasound, including specialists in maternal-fetal medicine, ultrasound physicians, ultrasonography technicians, and midwives.
This is chiefly a book prepared by two authors; however, other specialist authors have been invited to contribute where they can ofter access to additional outstanding visual material and the ability to explain its significance in an eftective and lucid way. Finally, particular emphasis is placed on achieving a very high quality reproduction in the printing process, in arder to do tul! justice to the wide variety of visual images presented.
ultrasound have now become a clinical reality.
