Echocardiography: A Practical Guide for Reporting and Interpretation sets echocardiography within a routine clinical context, aiming to synthesise guidelines into a pragmatic clinical approach to real patients. This book provides a step-by-step guide to performing, reporting, and interpreting a study, written with the calm voice of a senior echocardiographer teaching a junior colleague. This edition has been extensively revised with an expansion of sections on acute, intensive care, and emergency medicine, sharpening the debate over matching the level of scan to the clinical question.
