Product Description |
The thoroughly revised Sixth Edition of Feigenbaum's Echocardiography reflects recent changes in the technology and clinical use of echocardiography. Included are detailed discussions of tissue Doppler imaging, harmonic imaging and its impact on tissue and contrast visualization, new applications of myocardial perfusion and three-dimensional echocardiography. Emphasizing the clinical importance of various echocardiography applications, this edition has chapters on systolic and diastolic left ventricular function, infective endocarditis, prosthetic valves, contrast echocardiography, stress echocardiography, systemic diseases, and operative and perioperative echocardiography. More than 1,200 illustrations complement the text. An accompanying DVD-ROM contains more than 900 moving cine loops with corresponding still images from the book. |

Technical Textbook |
|
Feigenbaum is deservably respected as one of the foremost authors on the subject of echocardiology. While this is a college textbook covering quite technical content, the author presents the material in a clear and concise manner. I ordered this textbook because I had all but given up trying to understand my course selected textbook written by Catherine M. Otto, MD., that covers most of the same materials. |

Outstanding value |
|
Excellent, clinically oriented book. The video DVD alone is worth more than the cost of the text and is fantastic. The text is very clinically relevant and is not as academic or mathmatecial as Otto's books. |

echocardiography at its finest |
|
As a student echocardiographer learning the pathology of cardiovascular diseases, I have both this edition and one earlier. This is well worth the upgrade in price. It has 1 second loops of most of the many possible pathologies found in echocardiographic studies. Though I have looked at the clips several times, installation was initially a short-lived problem. This new edition is a complete overhaul as described by Feigenbaum. He admits that he is not the sole author but Armstrong and Ryan are the primarys on this edition. This book's attention to clinical detail makes it a must in my book when considering Echo books. Having a resource to give you a moving example of cardio pathology can only enhance one's understanding. |
