This text offers the student a firm grounding in normal anatomy and physiology from an ultrasound perspective.

Most images are accompanied by labeled drawings with detailed legends that explain what the reader is supposed to notice on the ultrasound scans. Instructor resources are available; please contact your Elsevier sales representative for details.
