Editorial Review:
Head and neck ultrasound is a standard radiological examination performed at most hospitals. It is an important topic and all specialist registrars in radiology will need to learn how to scan the organs and structures of the head and neck. This book covers normal anatomy and provides a comprehensive account of pathological processes in all of the head and neck structures, including the vasculature. With excellent diagrams and high quality images, it illustrates the key technical and diagnostic steps needed by both trainee and established radiographers or radiologists. It provides clear guidance on scanning technique, potential pitfalls and common problems, and how to achieve optimum image quality. Key topics include: normal anatomy of the head and neck region, practical scanning technique, the salivary glands, the thyroid and parathyroid, lymph nodes, cystic masses, the larynx, what the surgeon needs to know and why, biopsy techniques and basic vascular ultrasound.

Rating: - Good review book for practitioners doing ultrasound on the head and neck
I recommend this book for those doctors or techs who want a good overview of head and neck ultrasonography. Full of color photos. It has been very helpful for me in my practice of endocrinology and diagnostic thyroid ultrasounds and FNAs. There is a chapter on FNAs & biopsies. Very useful for those doctors who want to do the ultrasounds themselves instead of relying on an US tech. It was recommended to me by an experienced ultrasound tech.
Rating: - Excellent Primer On Head and Neck Ultrasound
This book provides a very comprehensive introduction to head and neck ultrasound. Each section of text is accompanied by a clear ultrasound image of the pathology. There is also a good deal of clinical and helpful hints in the book.

A very good buy overall for anyone getting started in Head and Neck ultrasound imaging. The advanced user will probably want a little weightier text.
