The BSAVA of Canine and Feline Ultrasonography provides an overview of the physical properties of this increasingly popular imaging technique and discusses the equipment required as well as the general principles of the ultrasound examination, before moving on to consider body systems in individual chapters. Each of the system chapters follows a similar format:*Indications *Comparison of ultrasonography with radiography and computed tomography *Imaging technique *Normal ultrasonographic appearance *Interpretation of diseaseThe Manual is extensively illustrated with images of both normal anatomy and the abnormalities associated with disease. In addition, as the moving image is such a vital part of interpreting ultrasound studies, a DVD-ROM featuring video clips relevent to the individual chapters accompanies this Manual.
