Catherine Otto, MD, Professor of Medicine, Director, Cardiology Fellowship Programs, University of Washington, Seattle, WA
Description
The new edition of Dr. Otto's benchmark text of echocardiography is a must for everyone learning echo for the first time, or re-learning
the essential concepts. Dr. Otto's writing style engages the reader and makes difficult concepts easy to understand. New to this edition
is a discussion of new echo techniques including contrast and 3D and how they fit into the echo practice. All echo images are new to
this edition and are complemented by new full color drawings of heart structures and physical orientation. Each chapter includes a practical
outline called The Echo Exam, ideal for understanding the use of echo and how to understand the outcomes.
