FETAL ANOMALIES
Advances in ultrasound technology are reshaping the field of
health care for obstetricians and pediatric specialists. Detailed
fetal imaging has enabled medical professionals to detect fetal
structural anomalies and research practical guidelines for prenatal
diagnosis and postnatal management. Fetal Anomalies:
Ultrasound Diagnosis and Postnatal Management is a
practical sourcebook with images of structural fetal malformations
on a continuum that begins at the stage of ultrasonographic
identification, progressing to characterization in the newborn
period, and culminating in repair and postoperative follow up.
This comprehensive text correlates pre- and post-natal images
with the type of treatment appropriate to structural anomalies of
the different organ systems. Numerous examples from each organ
system are included and the material is clinically oriented.
Fetal Anomalies: Ultrasound Diagnosis and Postnatal
Management reviews such topics as:
* Externally visible defects
* Skeletal dysplasia
* Central nervous, gastrointestinal, urinary, and genital
systems
* Umbilical cord anomalies
* Abnormalities specific to multiple pregnancies
* Abnormalities of amniotic fluid volume
* Abnormalities that elude prenatal detection
Incorporating the pictorial strengths of an atlas with the
didactic utility of a reference work, Fetal Anomalies:
Ultrasound Diagnosis and Postnatal Management is a unique
book bridging various specialties that comprise maternal-fetal
medicine, such as obstetrics, diagnostic imaging, neonatology,
perinatology, surgery, and urology.
