Reviews
“This book is a high-level volume prepared by authors who are leaders in EUS. In addition to clear and explanatory images of every aspect of pathology, the 25 chapters, written by authorities in their specific fields, form a cohesive body of endosonographic information. The contents are broken down into general and practical information (‘how to perform EUS’) and pathologic findings. Each topic is covered by numerous high-quality endosonophotographs along with short but clear informative descriptions of findings and techniques.
This book is considerably more than just a collection of endosonographic photographs. It provides a clear overview of all aspects of EUS from instrumentation to therapeutic procedures. In addition, it is a superb atlas with outstanding images of normal and pathologic findings.
This well-illustrated book should be part of a required library not only for all those learning endosonography but also for the experienced endosonographer who will appreciate the clarity of explanation and the completeness of this magnificent collection of images.”

"This text will be of interest to all GI Radiologists working in the field. The section on the ano rectum will be of particular interest to colorectal surgeons who undertake their own procedures. The contributors of the text are authorities in their field and the whole book is beautifully illustrated throughout."
