Cardiology fellow review
I could not recommend this book enough if you are a cardiology fellow or even beyond. It is comprehensive yet very straight forward and practical guide to reading echos like a pro. This book is helpful for any level in training and beyond. It walks you through sequential views, gives measurements, explains in detail with clinical applicability different modalities, what to focus on. I have used on every echo rotation and find it immensly helpful amd enjoyable read. The graphics and layout is excellent.
This is the holy grail of Echo reading!!!
Best book for learning echocardiography!! Comprehensive and detailed yet conscise and straight forward. Easy to read and very interactive. Can't think of a better echo book for a busy cardiology fellow!!!
Profoundly helpful!
Text is concise, direct, and straightforward without simplifying or abridging its subject matter. As helpful for systematic board review as it is for quick clinical reference on rounds or in the echo lab. The quality of the images and videos is consistently exceptional. Annotations and diagrams are intuitive and well composed. By popular demand, this is the central resource used at my institution for training in the echo lab—both for Cardiology fellows and for Critical Care and Ultrasound fellows from Emergency Medicine.
