Third Edition
By
Catherine Otto, MD, Professor of Medicine, Director, Cardiology Fellowship Programs, University of Washington, Seattle, WA
Description
Dr. Otto's best-selling text not only explains how to qualitatively and quantitatively interpret echocardiographic images and Doppler
flow data, but also outlines how this information affects your clinical decision making. This edition features new chapters on tissue
doppler, intracardiac echocardiography, hand-held echocardiography, and echocardiography in inherited connective tissue disorders. A
companion DVD offers case-based multiple-choice questions to help you assess your understanding. Whether you are attempting to choose
a course of therapy, ascertain the optimal timing for intervention, arrive at a prognosis, or determine the possible need for periodic
diagnostic evaluation, this is an essential resource you'll consult time and time again.
