Description
Book SynopsisA brand new series from Oxford University Press, the Oxford Clinical Imaging Guides are specifically designed to help doctors master bedside ultrasound imaging techniques. Each guide explains the principles and practice of using imaging in an easy-to-read, highly-illustrated, and authoritative manner. Practical Perioperative Transoesophageal Echocardiography, Third Edition, is the definitive guide dedicated to helping clinicians use this essential imaging technique to manage perioperative cardiac patients. Capturing the latest evidence-based developments; this resource offers authoritative guidance on monitoring and procedures for cardiac anaesthetists and intensivists. International expert authors help you apply this knowledge via clear step-by-step techniques with a focus on problem-solving and safe practice. Extensively illustrated itself, the book comes with online access to even more content: over 670 videos with corresponding annotated still frames, plus you can test your knowled
Trade ReviewThe third edition of Practical Perioperative Transoesophageal Echocardiography, for all intents and purposes, should be considered the current "gold standard" transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) handbook. I recommend to all experienced echocardiographers who are looking for a handy reference guide for anatomy, pathology, and placement of prostheses and devices. * M. D.
