Without a deep understanding of what normal anatomy looks like in ultrasound images, you may have a tough time recognizing abnormalities. Thankfully, Sonography: Introduction to Normal Structure and Function, 6th Edition, provides the firm grounding in normal anatomy and physiology that you need from an ultrasound perspective. This highly visual text uses a wealth of ultrasound images accompanied by labeled drawings with detailed legends to increase your comfort with normal anatomy as it appears during scanning. A consistent chapter format also makes the content easy to navigate and reinforces standard protocols for scanning each area of the body.

Detailed line drawings accompany most sonograms, reinforcing what you should notice on the scan and offering confirmation if you are uncertain
Highly visual content leads with images and uses narrative to support those visuals
Quality control protocol information helps you recreate the most optimal scanning settings and techniques
Reference charts offer relevant information for types of sonography, including associated physicians, common diagnostic tests, laboratory values, vasculature, and affecting chemicals

UPDATED! 100+ images and accompanying illustrations visually clarify key concepts and give you a better picture of what you should see in scans
NEW! AI-empowered ultrasonography coverage explores the emergence of this technology and its impact on clinical practice
NEW! Targeted callouts aligned with ARDMS registry content enhance exam preparation
