Reviews

The book has a companion website that provides excellent-quality echocardiographic video loops, which serve as adjunctive educational and reference tools.. ...... The book concludes with an overview of some basic cardiac diseases as well as some excellent images and diagrams for reference. Overall, given the high-quality images, diagrams, and accompanying videos, this book is an excellent introductory echocardiography reference for primary care practitioners. The author states that becoming a proficient echocardiographer requires practice, patience, and more in-depth reading to develop these techniques and assessments, and I strongly concur. This book is simply an introductory reference and should not be expected to be more than that (Reviewed by Bill Tyrrell, DVM, DACVIM CVCA Cardiac Care for Pets, Leesburg, Va 15th june 2017 AVMA)
