Description
With a foreword by John T. Queenan, MD, Professor and Chair Emeritus of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Georgetown University School of Medicine,
Washington.
Fetal medicine has emerged as a separate subspecialty over the last 30 years as a result of major advances in a number
of areas, in particular ultrasound imaging, cytogenetics, molecular biology and biochemistry. The widespread use of antenatal screening
and diagnostic tests has led to an increased need for obstetricians to have knowledge and skills in fetal medicine. This book provides
the information that underpins training programmes in fetal medicine and integrates science and clinical disciplines in a practical and
useful way.
Audience:
• Specialists and trainees in fetal medicine• Obstetricians• Neonatologists• Radiologists with an interest in ultrasound• Epidemiologists with an interest in screening
