The first edition of this definitive text ran to 24 chapters. The
second edition, reflecting the explosive growth of interest in
echo-enhancement, contains 44. The first section deals with some of
the most important emerging issues and technologies and covers
harmonic imaging, the use of echo-enhancers to provide quantitative
information, and the application of enhanced power Doppler to
tissue imaging. The second, on contrast echocardiography, explores
the use of echo-enhancement during transesophageal imaging. One
chapter describes the use of contrast-enhancement transesophageal
imaging to determine coronary flow reserve and another gives a
detailed account of the application of the technique to the
evaluation of left ventricular function. Other authors describe the
intraoperative use of contrast echocardiography and discuss the
potential of myocardial contrast echocardiography to replace
thallium scintigraphy. Another chapter covers the emerging
technique of transient response imaging and its role in the
assessment of myocardial perfusion, and two chapters are devoted to
three-dimensional contrast echocardiographic assessment of
myocardial perfusion. Use of echo-enhancement in the evaluation of
peripheral circulation is discussed in chapters on carotid and
peripheral arterial flow imaging and others that describe renal and
hepatic vascular imaging. The newer applications of
echo-enhancement outside the cardiovascular system are described in
three chapters devoted to the visualization of tumour vasculature.
The final chapters look to the future and cover the imaging of
intramyocardial vasculature, the development of site-specific
agents and the emergence of the new acoustically active agents.
