Adult Echo Review, 2nd edition

Test yourself before the ARDMS tests you! The new 2nd Edition of Adult Echocardiography Review illuminates the facts and principles on which you will be tested, hones your test-taking skills, and reveals your strengths and weaknesses by exam topic. Covering the topics and tasks on the Adult Echo specialty exam outline published by ARDMS, this review contains more than 680 registry-like questions together with answers, clear explanations, and references for further study. More than 200 image-based cases and schematic illustrations prepare you to tackle images, anatomy, and pathology on the exam. Coverage includes major echocardiographic views and protocols; normal anatomy and physiology; structural, congenital, and other pathologies; physics and hemodynamics; patient care; and measurement techniques and calculations to assess cardiac function, all in approximate proportion to the exam itself.
