Transvaginal Sonography

This book is a comprehensive guide to transvaginal sonography for practitioners. Divided into five sections, the text begins with discussion on general aspects of ultrasonography and transvaginal scanning. The following sections cover the use of ultrasonography in a variety if gynaecological and obstetrical circumstances. The final sections cover Doppler sonography and 3D and 4D transvaginal sonography. The third edition has been fully revised to provide clinicians with the latest advances in their field. Authored by an internationally recognised team of experts led by Zagreb-based Asim Kurjak and Madrid-based José Bajo Arenas, the text is further enhanced by nearly 700 ultrasound images, photographs, diagrams and tables. Key points Fully revised, third edition presenting latest advances in transvaginal sonography Highly illustrated with nearly 700 ultrasound images, photographs, diagrams and tables Internationally recognised editor and author team Previous edition (9789350904732) published in 2013

An introductory text for gynecologists who are not familiar with the techniques of ultrasound and for radiologists who are not very familiar with gynecologic diseases. It not only focuses on technique, but includes anatomy, physiology, and the disease process, and summarizes practical clinical information needed in everyday practice. This edition (first was 1991) updates the basic concepts of transvaginal ultrasound. The text is expanded to include additional techniques in clinical areas such as color flow Doppler, invasive techniques, the application of ultrasound to menometrorrhagia and urogynecology, and the diagnosis of congenital anomalies.

This book offers a unique and focused study of the use of ultrasound during the first trimester, a critical time in a fetus’ development. It includes basic examination guidelines as well as cutting-edge ultrasound modalities, including Doppler and three-dimensional ultrasound, for the period immediately preceding conception through early embryology. Beginning with a discussion of the safety and efficacy of diagnostic ultrasound and the use of this modality for the evaluation and treatment of infertility, recognized experts in the field explore conditions that may interfere with normal conception or development, including maternal diseases that would benefit from early scanning, elements of teratology, multiple gestations, ectopic pregnancy, gestational trophoblastic disease, fetal anomalies and invasive procedures in the first trimester. Numerous illustrations and figures are provided to serve as aids for understanding key concepts. First-Trimester Ultrasound is a valuable resource for many, in or after training, in obstetrics and gynecology, radiology, emergency medicine, family medicine and genetics.

In the realm of diagnostic ultrasound, there have been dramatic technical advancements in recent years. Due to the advent of color Doppler, power Doppler and 3D imaging, there has been a revolutionary change in the diagnosis and management of various obstetrical and gynecological diseases. In order to keep abreast with all the ultrasound technicalities in a short span of time, we are presenting you with Jaypee Gold Standard Mini Atlas Series: Donald School Transvaginal Sonography. It is based on Donald School Textbook of Transvaginal Ultrasonography. Color Doppler and transvaginal sonography are the most recent developments in the field of imaging. The combination of these two in the same vaginal probe provides for excellent simultaneous visualization of structural and flow information, thereby, offering new insight into dynamic studies of blood flow as well as various pathologies within the female pelvis. Jaypee Gold Standard Mini Atlas Series: Donald School Transvaginal Sonography has been infused with numerous diagrams, pictures and photographs to enable gynecologists, obstetricians and diagnostic radiologists to get a first-hand view of ultrasound diagnosis. We believe that a picture can speak more than a thousand words. Keeping this in mind, we endeavor to bring to you high quality ultrasound images in order to do full justice to the wide spectrum of various obstetric and gynecological pathologies presented in these pictures. This book covers general aspects of vaginal sonography in both obstetrics and gynecology, Doppler sonography and 3D and 4D transvaginal sonography.

Nowhere has the impact of ultrasonography been more dramatic than in reproductive medicine, particularly in the diagnosis of female and male infertility, the management of assisted reproductive procedures and the monitoring of early pregnancy. This authoritative textbook encompasses the complete role of ultrasonography in the evaluation of infertility and assisted reproduction. Covering every indication for ultrasonography in assisted reproductive technology, this will prove an invaluable resource in the evaluation of the infertile patient and optimization of the outcome of treatment. The interpretation of images to improve fertility and reproductive success is emphasized throughout. Ultrasonography in Reproductive Medicine and Infertility is essential reading for clinicians working both in IVF clinics and in office practice. It will be particularly useful to gynecologists, infertility specialists, ultrasonographers and radiologists working in reproductive endocrinology and infertility, assisted reproductive technology, ultrasonography and radiology.

2-D and 3-D anal ultrasound are among the most recent and advanced tools available for both the diagnosis and the management of anorectal diseases. They are neither expensive nor harmful for the patients and progressively replaced anal mapping with EMG electrodes for the diagnosis of sphincter's defects and anismus, which represents nearly 50% of the cases of chronic constipation. Anal US may provide the clinician with useful information for both classification, diagnosis and management of anorectal sepsis, anal incontinence and anorectal-perineal chronic pain. Almost any case presented in this Atlas shows both imaging and clinical pictures, thus allowing both the radiologist and the clinician to assess the reliability of the exam and the outcome of the selected treatment.

This book exhaustively illustrates the numerous applications of transvaginal sonography. Each sonogram is accompanied by a line drawing and orientation view, allowing the reader to appreciate the appearance of the native image without distracting graphics. Color Doppler sonography using the transvaginal probe, and transperineal and transrectal scanning are examined extensively. This second edition also includes a detailed discussion of fetal anatomy and diagnostic fetal anomalies. This edition is significantly larger and includes more photos and an increased use of color.
