Book Overview

A concise, practical reference that can be a companion to Hagen-Ansert Textbook of Diagnostic Ultrasonography 4/e, or used as a stand-alone resource for anyone interested in ultrasound physics. This easy-to-follow text works well as a primer for the Registry exam. Topics covered include broadband transducers, modern beam formers, dynamic frequency filtering, intraluminal transducers, colour flow imaging methodology, bioeffects and acoustic output...

Great layman's review of Medical Ultrasound Physics

I found this book very useful to get a birds-eye understanding of the physics behing medical ultrasound. The author uses metaphorical examples and images very nicely throughout the book to provide a very clear yet concise review of the subject matter. This book is not for you if you are looking for detailed mathematical analysis of ultrasound wave acoustics and beamforming.

Works well for ARDMS

Now that I finished my ARDMS abdomen exam, I can say this book was adequate preparation for this test. I am a physician so perhaps have a different background than the average reader, but I found the book very easy to read, with enough ultrasound images in the practice test portion of the book. This was the only book I used to prepare for the exam, and I scored 92%. There are occasional factual errors, mostly confined to the practice test, as well as rare typographical errors (that I noticed). Also the CDROM that comes with the book (containing the same practice exam as the text) has a tendency to repeat questions even when specifically set not to do so. Overall, a good way to spend time and money if passing the ARDMS-abdomen is your goal.

Great Book

This is an amazingly well organized, thorough book, exactly in the sprit of the ARDMS Physics and Instrumentation exam. All issues that are relevant to the exam are well discussed in this book. For someone who started with very little knowledge of the material, I scored nearly 90% thanks in large part to the preparation possible through this book.

excellent book for ardms exam

this book is written according to the ardms guidelines.each topic is covered very comprehensively.this is an excellent book for a person who is preparing for ardms exam

Essentials of Ultrasound Physics..An exceptional aid!

Any individual preparing for the ARDMS exams in diagnostic medical ultrasound need look no further. At last, a book that is readable, easy to follow (actually follows the ARDMS physics outlline) and is very well illustrated with interesting and intuitive diagrams. The author has the rare talent of translating an extremely complex subject into everyday, understandable language.
