Die dreidimensionale (3D) Ultraschalldiagnostik hat in den letzten Jahren die Geburtshilfe-Betreuung erobert, so dass heute mehr als die Hälfte der Kliniken und Praxen hierzulande ein 3D-fähiges Ultraschallgerät besitzen. Zunächst bekannt durch das „Baby-Facing", besitzt die 3D-Sonografie inzwischen jedoch ein viel größeres Potential in der Darstellung der verschiedenen Organe unter normalen und pathologischen Bedingungen. Dabei können viele Funktionen wie eine neu zu erlernende Software bedient werden. Dieses Werk versteht sich zum Einen als praktischer Leitfaden, um die vielen 3D-Funktionen zu erläutern. Zum Anderen soll es eine Hilfestellung liefern, die 3D-Sonografie im Rahmen einer gezielten vorgeburtlichen Diagnostik optimal anzuwenden. Die Autoren verfügen über 15 Jahre Erfahrungen auf dem Gebiet der 3D-Sonografie.

Initially known for its beautiful images of the faces of babies, 3D ultrasound has, however, become an important tool in prenatal diagnosis for its ability to image fetal organs in normal and abnormal conditions. This book is a state-of-the-art work conceived as a practical guide to the application of 3D ultrasound in obstetrics. The authors of this book have extensive expertise in 3D ultrasound that spans for more than 25 years. The book has three sections: one section on the technical principles of 3D ultrasound, a second section on various 3D rendering tools with a step-by-step explanation of its use. The third section is dedicated to the clinical use of 3D in the examination of the fetal organs. In this 2nd edition, the entire book has been revised and actualized.
