Download or read book Doppler Ultrasound in Perinatal Medicine written by John Malcolm Pearce and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doppler ultrasound is playing an increasing role in obstetrics, and its applications in screening and the monitoring of high-risk pregnancy are attracting much interest. This is a comprehensive and readable guide to its theory and practice, written by leading experts who have carried out much of the original work in the field. The first section reviews the physics and statistical concepts of Doppler ultrasound, gathering together information not otherwise available to clinicians. Next, it describes the means of acquiring waveforms, and their use in various clinical settings. Practical guidance is given on setting up continuous-wave Doppler equipment in the district general hospital. Finally the book discusses the use of pulsed-wave and color-flow Doppler ultrasound. This detailed work summarizes such areas as the management of fetal cardiac dysrhythmias, the study of neonatal cerebral blood-flow, and the estimation of maternal cardiac output. An outstanding reference source, the book will be essential reading for obstetricians, radiologists, and ultrasonographers, and will be valuable both to those new to the field and those already using a Doppler ultrasound system in perinatal medicine.

Download or read book Doppler Blood Flow Measurement in Uteroplacental and Fetal Vessels written by Birgit Arabin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doppler ultrasound is a hot topic at the present time. This is because studies of the uteroplacental and fetal circulation give fundamental information as to the physiology or pathology of placental function and the response of the fetal circulation to hypoxaemia. Dr. Arabin's clinical studies which are described in this book are an important contribution to knowledge in this field and will be of enormous interest not only to researches but also to clini cians interested in learning how this latest technology can be integrated into their clinical practice. London STUART CAMPBELL Foreword Although only three decades old, the field of perinatal medicine is marked by continuous new advances. Ultrasound diagnostic techniques comprise an important element of this new field. Dr. Arabin has taken the initiative to investigate the functional-diagnostic aspects of ultrasound. Among other things, she has further developed and refined the concept of "oxygen-con serving adaptation of fetal circulation" which originated in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Neukolln Hospital Center in 1966. She thus has been able to show that the most reliable Doppler blood flow meas urement predictors of a high risk to the fetus are (1) a decrease in the flow volume of the descending thoracic aorta and the umbilical artery and (2) an increase in the flow volume of the common carotid arteries.

Download or read book Perinatal Imaging written by Fred E. Avni and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fetal and perinatal medicine is a rapidly expanding field, and noninvasive imaging by means of ultrasonography and MRI is playing a major role in refining diagnosis and therapy. Recent technological advances in these imaging modalities now allow unprecedented morphological depiction of the fetus and excellent insight into complex pathologic conditions, as well as yielding superior guidance for therapeutic fetal inter ventions. I am very pleased that Professor F. Avni , a leading international pediatric radiologist, was prepared to take on the challenging task of preparing and editing this comprehen sive and up-to-date overview of our knowledge in the area of fetal and perinatal imaging. He has been successful in engaging well-known experts with outstanding qualifications in fetal imaging to join him in this venture. I would like to congratulate Professor Avni and all contributing authors most sincerely for their excellent work. I am confident that this outstanding volume will meet with great interest not only from general as well as specialized pediatric radiologists but also from neonatologists and pediatricians. I trust it will enjoy the same success as many previous volumes in this series. ALBERT L. BAERT Leuven Preface Fetal and perinatal medicine would not have developed without the extensive use of obstetric ultrasound (US). In order to be efficient, the examination has to be performed very carefully and by sonologists fully conversant with the normal and abnormal development of the fetus.
Download or read book Controversies in Perinatal Medicine written by Jose M. Carrera and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-04-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of new diagnostic technologies such as Doppler technology and three-dimensional ultrasonography has changed the nature of perinatal medicine. However, the rush to introduce new procedures has sometimes compromised the rigor necessary in the initial analyses of their uses. The field is moving ahead so rapidly that health-care protocols can quickly lose their validity and controversy soon arises. Controversies in Perinatal Medicine examines the current state of the science through the lens of evidence-based medicine. With expert editorial direction and contributions from leaders in the field, the book guides readers through the maze of new technologies and procedures and explores the issues they raise in terms of scientific methodology. It focuses on selected issues in quality care of the fetus and the mother; early diagnosis and decision making; how and if new diagnostic technologies affect outcomes; contributions of ultrasou nd technology to the body of knowledge; screening and treatment for prematurity; changes in cesarean section rates; and ethical issues. Controversies in Perinatal Medicine gives you a clear picture of the developments in diagnosis and treatment made possible by new technologies and the insight to resolve the issues involved in using them.

Download or read book Doppler Ultrasound in Obstetrics Gynecology written by Dev Maulik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-03-11 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By allowing noninvasive assessment of circulation, development of Doppler sonography has revolutionized medical diagnostics. The fea sibility of the medical application of Doppler sonography was demon strated more than three decades ago, and the first report of Doppler velocimetry of the fetal circulation was published two decades ago. Over the years, impressive technological innovation and advances in clinical research have promoted the use of this method in medical practice. There also has been phenomenal expansion in research on the obstetrical and gynecological applications of Doppler sonography. In obstetrics, Doppler sonography has allowed unprecedented insight into the pathophysiology of human fetal response to in utero stress. This ushered in the possibility of using the method for antepartum fetal surveillance, so that timely recognition of fetal compromise and appropriate intervention could improve perinatal outcome. Numer ous clinical studies mostly have confirmed, but occasionally have re futed, the diagnostic efficacy of Doppler velocimetry in various preg nancy disorders. More significantly, the benefits of umbilical arterial Doppler investigation in reducing perinatal mortality in high-risk pregnancies have been affirmed by randomized clinical trials. In addi tion, the introduction of fetal Doppler echocardiography has not only tremendously increased our understanding of human fetal central circulation in health and disease, but also has enhanced our ability to diagnose congenital heart disease in utero. In addition, significant strides have been made in the gynecological applications of Doppler sonography, including general gynecology, infertility, and oncology.
