This book provides cardiologists with access to the wealth of imaging
from the Royal Brompton Hospital and National Heart and Lung Institute
in London to enable them to improve on their own skills and refine their
imaging technique. The authors correlate this echocardiography
experience with the pathological and surgical aspects of congenital
heart defects. They include a review of the pathologic, physiologic and
surgical observations of different congenital diseases to assist in
understanding the various echocardiographic presentations. The book
contains large numbers of echocardiographic images to illustrate the
appearances of rare defects and demonstrates the use of Doppler
echocardiography in assessing abnormal cardiac morphology and
physiology.
