With its easy accessibility, low cost, and ability to deliver, essential bedside information about the cardiac structure and function, echocardiography has become one of the most relied-upon diagnostic tools in clinical medicine. As a result, more clinicians than ever before must be able to accurately interpret echocardiographic information in order to administer appropriate treatment.
Based on the authors’ experience teaching echocardiography in busy clinical settings, this new pocketbook provides reliable guidance on everyday clinical cardiac ultrasound and the interpretation of echocardiographic images. It has been designed to help readers develop a stepwise approach to the interpretation of a standard transthoracic echocardiographic study and teach how to methodically gather and assemble the most important information from each of the standard echocardiographic views in order to generate a complete final report of the study performed.
What’s included:
• A summary of TTE examination protocol and a comprehensive listing of useful formulas and normal values
• Atrial and ventricular dimensions, LV and RV systolic function, LV diastolic patterns
• Echocardiographic findings in the most commonly encountered cardiac diseases and disorders, including various cardiomyopathies, cardiac tamponade, constrictive pericarditis, valvular heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, infective endocarditis, and congenital heart disease
• Companion website with video clips and over 70 self-assessment questions
Packed with essential information and designed for quick look-up, this pocketbook will be of great assistance for anyone who works in busy clinical settings and who needs a ready and reliable guide to interpreting echocardiographic information to help deliver optimal patient care.

Foreword
I am most pleased to write this Foreword for the book entitled “Pocket Guide of Echocardiography,” first edition, authored by Andro Kacharava, Alexander Gedevanishvili, Guram Imnadze, Dimitri Tsverava, and Craig Brodsky. The book begins with a summary of the TTE examination protocol and a comprehensive listing of useful formulas and normal values. These are followed by atrial and ventricular dimensions, LV and RV systolic function, LV diastolic patterns and their usefulness in evaluating diastolic heart failure and echocardiographic findings in various types of cardiomyopathies, cardiac tamponade, and constrictive pericarditis. Valvular heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, infective endocarditis, prosthetic valves, congenital heart disease, and clinically useful aspects of transesophageal echocardiography are also covered. The book ends with a list of references useful to the reader. The book is supplemented by several excellent diagrams, illustrations and tables, as well as short video clips and self-assessment questions. This pocketbook book will prove a handy asset not only to students and medical residents but also practicing cardiologists and echocardiographers.
This is one of the best books of its type that I have seen and I would recommend it highly.

Preface
More than half a century has passed since, on October 29, 1953, Inge Edler (a Swedish cardiologist) and Carl Helmut Hertz (a German physicist) recorded the first moving picture of the heart using a Siemens Ultrasound Reflectoscope, thus inaugurating the field of “ultrasound cardiography.” Due to its easy accessibility, low cost, and fantastic ability to provide rapid quantitative information about the cardiac structure and function at the bedside, echocardiography has developed rapidly within the last 30 years. These qualities make it one of the major diagnostic tools in clinical cardiology.
This pocket guide does not attempt to provide a comprehensive review of echocardiography, as that is not its goal; instead we strongly recommended that young cardiologists should obtain detailed information on echocardiography topics from the many excellent major echocardiography textbooks available. The Pocket Guide to Echocardiography is primarily designed to provide a compact, yet practical, pocket guide addressing the key aspects in the field of everyday clinical cardiac ultrasound, and we hope that the condensed format will be particularly helpful during the routine daily interpretation of echocardiographic images. The pocket guide and its companion will help novice cardiologists to develop a stepwise approach in their interpretation of a standard transthoracic echocardiographic study, teach them how to, methodically, gather and assemble the important pieces of information from each of the standard echocardiographic views in order to generate a complete final report of the study performed. We also hope that the pocket guide will be of great assistance during busy night calls while performing emergent/urgent echocardiography studies.
In order to improve the visual comprehension of the echocardiographic images of different cardiac pathologies, a companion web site is included containing more than 60 video clips, each with a short description, demonstrating a wide range of cardiovascular pathology. In addition, the site also lists 68 multiple-choice questions, with subsequent correct answers, to help to consolidate the theoretical knowledge in the field of adult clinical echocardiography.
We would like to thank our teachers and colleagues for their support, encouragement, and work revising this manual. Many thanks to West Georgia Health cardiology department and the cardiology division of the Emory University School of Medicine. Our special thanks go to Dr. Navin C. Nanda who agreed to review our pocket guide and write a foreword to the book. We hope that the Pocket Guide to Echocardiography will be well recieved and prove useful to cardiac specialists, emergency medicine physicians, and anesthesiologists alike. We also hope that it will contribute to an improved standard of cardiac care for our patients.
