Reviews for NT Scanning for the Beginner

It gives me great pleasure to review 'NT Scanning for the Beginner' written by a qualified professional who is passionate about scanning and has a thorough knowledge of the ultrasound principles, techniques and diagnosis. In this book, the author explains the difference between NIPT and the combined test in NT screening as well as the role of the Sonographer in educating women and helping them to understand the significance of the combined test. 'NT Scanning for the Beginner' comes in a simple layout that is easy to carry about on a daily basis. It covers every aspect of the combined test and will serve as a quick referral at the time of the scan. The book will also be a valuable resource for everyone who is performing the combined test. Overall, it is my considered opinion that 'NT Scanning for the Beginner' will cover a gap in 1st trimester ultrasonographic evaluation. Hopefully, it will succeed also, in conveying the passion and the knowledge of the author to the reader.
