Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:
"Theoretical, practical, and even research topics are well represented in this book on thyroid and parathyroid ultrasound. … This book will be of interest to anyone who sees patients with thyroid diseases, practicing endocrinologists as well as endocrine fellows. … This excellent book on thyroid ultrasound will be very helpful to endocrinologists who care for patients with thyroid disease. It is well written and its wonderful ultrasound images help elucidate the numerous topics. I really enjoyed reading this book, and I recommend it very highly." (Ronald N Cohen, Doody’s Review Service, September, 2008)
"This handy booklet certainly should be considered a valuable tool for all those who are in contact with thyroid diseases and/or thyroid disorders such as, for instance, endemic goiter and its epidemiology. … All dramatic advances in this field are described in 14 chapters written by experienced experts from two continents … ." (Endocrine Regulations, 2008)
"This is the first comprehensive, up-to-date textbook in this field, which will give you meticulous information on every topic. Most of the images are of very high quality … . There are numerous image examples from each entity. There are many good recommendations in the book. … Thyroid Ultrasound and Ultrasound-Guided FNA, second edition, is a totally new book. It will be invaluable to anyone performing ultrasound examinations and ultrasound-guided cytologic biopsies with real-time image assessment of the thyroid and cervical lymph nodes." (Arne Heilo, Acta Radiologica, Issue 8, 2009)
