Trade Review"All sections have been completely revised and brought up to date with extensive lists of references. Furthermore, there has been a determined effort to place the role of ultrasound in context with other radiological modalities such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.Undoubtedly [...] the standard reference work for all who use ultrasound in their clinical practice." Ultrasound (The Journal of the British Medical Ultrasound Society), Aug 2011
