The thoroughly revised Seventh Edition of
Feigenbaum's Echocardiography reflects recent changes in the technology and clinical use of echocardiography.
Highlights include detailed discussions on the use of three-dimensional echocardiography and perfusion imaging and new information on the mechanics and utility of Strain and Strain rate imaging.
Many new images complement the state-of-the-art information on technological advances. Current AHA/ACC guidelines are included for each chapter.
A companion Website will offer the fully searchable text, a list of relevant guidelines, tables suitable for PowerPoint slides, and a tutorial on echo interpretation with voiceover and animations.
