The use of ultrasound contrast media has changed the field of ultrasound in a radical way. The diagnostic abilities have expanded greatly and diagnostic confidence has been taken to a new level. Although the emphasis is still on liver diseases, it is accepted that US contrast agents can also add a great deal of diagnostic value in extra hepatic organ diseases, as well as in renal disorders. Meanwhile there is a great need for the teaching of CEUS virtually all around the globe.
This book was written by internationally renowned experts in this field and provides up-to-date information about the principles of CEUS and the indications and interpretation in different organ diseases when using US contrast agents.
