are the acclaimed monographs produced for beginners to get a quick
overview of echo and Doppler. This easily understood series, originally
published by Medi-Cine and distributed by Ciba-Geigy in the America's

to understand the basics of these modalities. A part of this series
won an award for medical education from the British Medical Association.

the basics of echocardiography in terms of its detection of valvular
heart disease and its assoicated phenonmena.
Part III (Heart Muscle

in the evaluation of the left ventricle.
