Echocardiology

Focusing on the advancements in non-invasive cardiac diagnostics, this book presents a collection of lectures from Erasmus University Rotterdam, highlighting the collaborative efforts between medical and technical scientists. It is structured into three sections: an introduction to clinical echocardiology, the application of Doppler methods, and an exploration of two-dimensional real-time imaging techniques. The text aims to foster interdisciplinary communication and showcases the evolution of ultrasound technology in cardiac care since the 1940s.
