Reviews for Placental-Fetal Growth Restriction

'It is logically organised in seven sections and 28 chapters, which take the reader through basic principles, screening for the problem through to management, and postnatal effects. There is a chapter dedicated to currently available guidelines and a whole section (five chapters) dedicated to each aspect of fetal physiology ... Clear illustrations combined with ultrasound images and management algorithms are provided as appropriate. One of the main strengths of the book is its readability, making it accessible to a wide audience, from trainees to fetal medicine specialists, and as such useful for anyone currently delivering antenatal care.' Alina Vais, The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist
