    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    From its humble beginnings in the 1950s as an adaptation of marine sonar systems, echocardiography has grown rapidly in its usage and importance. Advanced computer techniques now allow imaging of the heart in many planes through many "windows," allowing for improved diagnosis of cardiac disease through the use of the latest echocardiographic methods of investigation. This book discusses all forms of ultrasound imaging including transesophageal (TOE), intra-operative, epicardial and intravascular, as well as the more traditional types. Topics include sub- and supra-aortic stenosis, tricuspid valve disease, infective endocarditis, cardiac masses, and pericardial disease.

    Long description:

    From its humble beginnings in the 1950's as an adaptation of marine sonar systems, echocardiography has recently grown rapidly in its usage and importance. Advanced computer techniques now allow imaging of the heart in many planes through many 'windows'. Each section of this book contains all forms of ultrasound imaging including transesophageal (TOE), intra-operative, epicardial and intravascular as well as the more standard types. The book's purpose is to improve diagnosis of cardiac disease through the use of the latest echocardiographic methods of investigation. It is of use to physicians in training and in practice, to technicians and radiologists interested in ultrasound.

    It is a joy to read...a 'must' for those preparing for Echo examinations.
    ?International Journal of Cardiology

    ...very reasonably priced, considering the wealth of illustrations, and it should have a place in every echo department.
    ?British Society of Echocardiography
