What your colleagues are saying about Obstetric Ultrasound...
"I thoroughly enjoyed 'Obstetric Ultrasound: Principles & Techniques'. I found that the information, content and presentation of the CD-ROM provided an almost 'hands-on' experience. I will continue to use this CD-ROM as a reference tool. Not only is 'Obstetric Ultrasound: Principles & Techniques’ a good teaching tool, but a good review tool as well. I love it!"
