About this book

This essential book is a unique, authoritative and clinically oriented text on pediatric ultrasound. It provides up-to-date information addressing all aspects of congenital and acquired disorders in children encountered in clinical practice. The easy-to-navigate text is divided into 20 chapters. Each chapter is organized to cover the latest ultrasound techniques, normal development and anatomy, anatomic variants, key clinical presentations, characteristic ultrasound imaging findings, differential diagnoses and relevant pitfalls. With more than 2400 images, examples of new technological developments such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound and elastography are included. Written by internationally known pediatric radiology experts and editorial team lead by acclaimed authors, Harriet J. Paltiel, MDCM and Edward Y. Lee, MD, MPH, this reference is a practical and ideal guide for radiologists, radiology trainees, ultrasound technologists as well as clinicians in other specialties with an interest in pediatric ultrasound.

Reviews

“Culminating in a section on ultrasound safety, the often intimidating topic of ‘physics’ is well written and, importantly, accessible. … this text would serve as a detailed bridge for those also experienced in scanning adults … . this comprehensive reference text is an outstanding resource for all those who want to exploit ultrasound to its maximum capability. The wealth of high quality images and substantive explanations set this text apart in a crowded marketplace.” (Amjad Hussain, RAD Magazine, May, 2022)

“This book is truly exhaustive. ... It serves as an excellent review of pediatric conditions from head to toe. … Few pediatric radiologists can be experts in all areas. This book is a fine supplement to the momentarily lost radiologist. … I certainly recommend this book to residents and seasoned radiologists. It is a reminder of the value, versatility and strength of an ultrasonic investigation.” (Brent H. Adler, Pediatric Radiology, Vol. 52, 2022)
