Product Description:
Thoroughly updated for its Third Edition, this best-selling manual is a practical guide to the performance, interpretation, and clinical applications of echocardiography. The Echo Manual is written by recognized authorities at the Mayo Clinic and provides a concise, user-friendly summary of techniques, diagnostic criteria, and quantitative methods for both echocardiography and Doppler echocardiography. Discussion of each clinical problem also includes transesophageal echocardiography. This edition covers the latest techniques, standards, and applications and includes new contrast agents. All references have been updated. More than 900 images--well annotated and true to gray scale and color--give readers an immediate grasp of salient points.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome text book
This is great book for echocardiography to own. Every Cardiology fellow should start reading this book first before shooting for the bigger texts. Concepts are explained in simple terms. Schematic diagrams are wonderful.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect
Although I was reluctant at first, I am very pleased about this book. I am impressed with the high resolution images especially the color ones. I would highly recommend this book. I only wish that it could be in an electronic form as well....

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Old edition
Don't be misled by the low price- this is the 2nd edition- and the 3rd edition has been out for some time. Get the newer edition.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - beautiful, comprehensive, nicely updated
Great for the echo basics and reference. Images are beautiful and well-labeled. Updated version has several nice new tables and chapters on goal directed/special imaging. Great pathology correlates. Even includes updates on strain and newer techniques. Convinced our library to get it... Going to buy it before echo boards.
