The EACVI Textbook of Echocardiography

The EACVI Textbook of Echocardiography (2 ed.)

Edited by Patrizio Lancellotti, José Luis Zamorano, Gilbert Habib, and Luigi Badano

Previous Edition (1 ed.)

Abstract

Echocardiography uses ultrasound waves to generate images of cardiovascular structures and to display information regarding the blood flow through these structures. Knowledge of basic ultrasound principles and current technology is essential for image interpretation and for optimal use of equipment during image acquisition and post-processing. This fully updated second edition of the official textbook of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) serves the educational requirements of cardiologists and all clinical medical professionals, underpinning the structural training in accordance with the EACVI goals and reflecting the core European syllabus throughout.
