Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology: A Practitioner's Guide 1st Edition

I wish I had this book before I went to clinicals. It's a must have for registry prep. I love it!

This book is by far the bet OB/GYN ultrasound book for students and sonographers! I highly recommend taking the plunge.

This book is great for beginners. If you have been doing this for some time this material is pretty basic and I would not recommend spending all this money. I was a little disappointed, but again, great for students.

Easy to understand

I purchased this book for ultrasound school at the Institute of Ultrasound Diagnostics which is the place at which Kathy Gill (the author of this book) teaches. This book has been absolutely wonderful. It is very comprehensive and thorough. This book is great for beginners and experienced sonographers. My father is ARDMS registered, a member of the SDMS, and he has 20 plus years experience in ultrasound. He has stated that this text exceeds Mosby's comprehensive Diagnostic Ultrasound text. I have to agree with him. This book has very valuable pictures and diagrams with very detailed captions. It also has self- assessment exercises at the end of each chapter and a very extensive glossary in the back. This book includes sample clinical data sheets and AIUM guidlines and standards. I highly reccommend this book and hope that this review is helpful and encourages more purchases. This text is definitely worth the money!

A terrific book to have either you're a seasoned sonographer ,a student or reviewing for the registry exam. The comprehensive test at the end of each chapter is a big plus in retaining the concept of the subject matter. The illustrations and the photographs of the scans are very helpful and of good quality . A must have book for all sonographers!

I am also a student at IUD. I am 7 months into the program. We are currently in the fetal anomalies section of this book. There are many fetal abnormalities that can happen. Kathy Gill explains in such a way that any new sonographer can understand. My favorite feature is the charts. All of the main parts are usually depicted in a list format. Also, at the end of each chapter, Kathy always gives out scan tips for beginners!

I currently attend the Institute of Ultrasound Diagnostics and I felt this textbook was very beneficial during the OB portion of the program. It has a lot of important information and is very easy to read! I would recommend it to anyone just starting off in the field or to those who need a good refresher in OBGYN.
