ABSTRACT

For the ultrasound practitioner it is now more important than ever to have a rigorous understanding of fetal anatomy and development. This Atlas publishes a selection of very high-quality ultrasound images of the fetus alongside embryological preparations and fetoscopy images. This unique comparative technique will be an essential educational tool and work of reference for all involved in fetal ultrasound.
