Introduction to Tomographic Anatomy

  • Chapter
Two-Dimensional Echocardiographic Atlas

Abstract

The position of the abdominal viscera and cardiac chambers can usually be determined confidently by noninvasive ultrasound. Variations from normal should be described in a sequential fashion. Abdominal and retroperitoneal organs easiest to evaluate include the liver, stomach, abdominal aorta, inferior vena cava, and spleen (see Chapter 2).
