Reviews

'The pocket-sized book succinctly covers just about everything in ultrasound you could wish to know and would be especially helpful in the early stages of anyone’s sonographic career. Its 15 chapters cover an array of topics including not only scanning but physics (obviously), total quality management, the importance and art of effective and kindly patient communication, examining the organs and organ systems and concluding with the place of artificial intelligence in ultrasound.'- Catherine Parrin, Specialist Sonographer, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust
