Echo Made Easy has been designed to present the complex and intriguing subject of echocardiography in a format which is simple to understand, ready to assimilate and handy for reference. The initial chapters are devoted to principles of conventional echocardiography and color-Doppler imaging as well as their clinical applications. This is followed by description of various echo-windows and echo-views of normal cardiac structures. The abnormalities observed in different forms of heart disease including congenital, valvular, coronary, hypertensive, myocardial, endocardial and pericardial diseases have been discussed under separate sections. Due emphasis has been laid on diagnostic pitfalls, differential diagnosis, causative factors and clinical significance. It is my privilege to present this vastly improved third edition of Echo Made Easy wherein several striking real-time images, illustrative diagrams and explanatory tables have been incorporated. This book should serve as an ideal ready-reckoner for students, resident-doctors, nurses and technicians working in cardiology units as well as for general physicians interested in echocardiography.
