Emphasizing the clinical importance of various echocardiography applications, this edition has chapters on systolic and diastolic left ventricular function, infective endocarditis, prosthetic valves, contrast echocardiography, stress echocardiography, systemic diseases, and operative and perioperative echocardiography. More than 1,200 illustrations complement the text.

An accompanying DVD-ROM contains more than 900 moving cine loops with corresponding still images from the book.

Review:

echocardiography at its finest

As a student echocardiographer learning the pathology of cardiovascular diseases, I have both this edition and one earlier. This is well worth the upgrade in price. It has 1 second loops of most of the many possible pathologies found in echocardiographic studies. Though I have looked at the clips several times, installation was initially a short-lived problem. This new edition is a complete overhaul as described by Feigenbaum. He admits that he is not the sole author but Armstrong and Ryan are the primarys on this edition. This book's attention to clinical detail makes it a must in my book when considering Echo books. Having a resource to give you a moving example of cardio pathology can only enhance one's understanding.

Review:

superb

excellent clinically oriented, very well written and organized text book, supplemented with great clips on DVD. I found it very useful for exam preparation and in clinical practice

Review:

Great echo book but...

When I was a young man, I read the last edition of this book and I fell in love with Cardiology. Every word in the last edition was memorized, just like a love letter. Now I am an old man, and I was delighted to see a new edition of this book finally published. I spent one weekend digesting every word. While I found the book highly delightful to read, I am finding factual errors in the book, to my disappointment. For example, in chapter 6, page 172, figure 6.51, deceleration time of mitral inflow was drawn incorrectly (it should start from the peak of the E wave, not from the beginning of the E). Then in chapter 16, page 513, the book stated that in dobutamine echo, a hypokinetic area that exhibits "sustained improvement" rather than "bipashic response" should be read as non-viable. But in echo literature (Heart. 2001 Dec;86(6):672-8 and Am J Cardiol. 1999 Jul 15;84(2):130-4), "sustained improvement" is considered viable.

The book is great for beginner and intermediate level user. I still love my Feigenbaum, but I found a new love: Catherine Otto's $300 thick book (Principle of Clinical Echocardiography).

Review:

a towering text on adult echocardiography

this is a comprehensive text aimed at the cardiologist. all aspects of echo is covered. initial portion of book is devoted to man and machine. successive chapters cover various diseases like vulvular, ischaemic, cardiomyopathy etc in detail. easier to understand concise forms are found in harrison's textbook of medicine and in braunwald diseases of heart. the book has a large number of pictures and doppler tracings. hemodynamics are covered in length , although pisa is not. new edition is eagerly awaited.

Review:

Very Good book on all aspects of Echocardiography

If you are looking for a good overall book on all aspects of Echocardiography this is a good book at a fair price. This book, however, is geared toward the echocardiographic professional and would be very difficult for the layman to comprehend.
