5Preface
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. 6Keeping 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.
