Second Edition
by D. Jackson Coleman
Ultrasonography of the Eye and Orbit provides complete and clinically essential guidance on the physics and application of ultrasonography as a primary tool in ophthalmic diagnosis.
Features:
- Full coverage addressing the entire spectrum of ultrasound use in the diagnostic imaging of the eye and orbit
- The latest applications including the use of ultrasound in refractive surgery, post-LASIK evaluation, and neuro-ophthalmology
- Over 200 full-color, two-color, and balck & white illustrations that support the text, helping you recognize and identify critical pathologic features and disease entities
- A free DVD that contains narrated video clips of patient ultrasound examinations that will sharpen your interpretive skills
