Content:
"This book sets echocardiography within a routine clinical context. It aims to synthesize guidelines into a pragmatic clinical approach to real patients providing a step-by-step guide to performing, reporting and interpreting a study. Written with the imagination of the calm voice of a senior echocardiographer teaching a junior, this edition has been extensively revised with an expansion of sections on acute, intensive care and emergency medicine. COVID-19 has necessitated limiting exposure of both patient and operator to infection and also caused a huge increase in waiting lists. It also highlights the importance of collaboration between clinicians and echocardiographers"--
