Summary: This is the book to get
Review: If you are sick of textbooks that describe various conditions but don't show you how to interpret echos, then this book is for you. A truly great book that is very easy and simple to read. I have recomended it to many others who have also loved it. It is not an introductory text, but tells you how to report echos. Good for the cardiology trainees and someone who is still finding his way with reporting.

Summary: correlative and interpretative echo.reporting
Review: the most important part of echocardiography is the accompanying report. no amount of color photos and doppler tracings can compensate for a poorly written report. reports have to be written disease wise from management and prognosis point of views. different diseases merit different reports. this book is all about how to write correlative and interpretative reports for varying cardiac conditions. thus anyone wishing to master this art of reporting, this small book is a must.

Summary: Much advice in a small book
Review: This book is indeed very helpfull. Lots of advice for reporting, I also found it of use when structuring the examination. I does not get full score since the pediatric perspective is missing.
