An approachable textbook for medical practitioners and technologists studying to become ultrasound practitioners. Written by a leading ultrasound educator and designed to suit typical university, college or professional courses. Also appropriate for self-guided study.

The first edition of this book sold over 5000 copies. This second edition brings the content up to date, while retaining the style and chapter structure of the first. Many sections have been rewritten, new material has been introduced and some outmoded material removed. As before, a Study Guide has been developed to complement the text.
