Описание: Echocardiography Pocket Guide: The Transthoracic
Examination presents a highly illustrated step-by-step introduction to the basics
of the transthoracic examination. The typical sonographer scans the heart using
his or her right hand while seated on the patient’s right. Such views are shown
throughout to demonstrate the examination.Views from the patient’s left side are
also presented, as many sonographers prefer scanning from this perspective.
Views using the standard anatomical position, with the patient erect and facing
the examiner, are included to maintain harmony with traditional anatomy education
and other cardiac imaging techniques, such as CT and MRI.
This guide’s primary focus is the normal examination. However, it makes frequent
references to salient pathologic findings that can be seen, and should be
sought, on each view as the examination proceeds. In this pursuit, tabular summaries
and panoramic illustrations of normal and abnormal findings of cardiac
structure and function follow the presentation of each view. This reflects the systematic
thought process that is executed by expert sonographers as the examination
proceeds. Echocardiographic findings typically require confirmation using
multiple views, and this 3D perspective is emphasized. The major focus is the adult examination, but additional image projections that are used in
the pediatric examination for evaluating congenital heart disease are sprinkled
throughout. A Reference Guide of normal values for the quantification of cardiac
chamber dimensions appears at the end of this volume.
