About this book
Examination Review for Ultrasound: Abdomen and Obstetrics & Gynecology 2nd Edition PDF by Steven M. Penny is offered here as a PDF eBook. This second edition is a focused sonography review designed to prepare learners for abdomen and obstetrics/gynecology certification examinations, including ARDMS and ARRT pathways. It reviews abdominal organs and vasculature, female pelvic anatomy, fetal development and anatomy, pregnancy-related sonographic findings and common pathology. More than 230 sonographic images and diagrams support visual recognition, while chapter review questions and registry-style practice reinforce exam-oriented recall and interpretation. The book also links clinical history and physical findings with sonographic appearances so students can connect imaging results with the wider diagnostic picture. It is particularly useful for diagnostic medical sonography students and practicing sonographers preparing for specialty examinations or recertification review.
Designed for diagnostic medical sonography students and certification candidates, this edition provides a structured resource for understanding the anatomical and specialty content reviewed for abdominal and obstetric-gynecologic sonography examinations.
This listing is for the 2nd edition of Examination Review for Ultrasound: Abdomen and Obstetrics & Gynecology. Check the title, edition, authors/editors, and other product information before ordering if you need the book for a particular course, syllabus, examination, or professional reference.
About This Sonography Review
Examination Review for Ultrasound separates its material into abdominal, gynecologic, and obstetric review sections. The abdominal portion moves through major organs, the urinary tract, vessels, and superficial structures. Gynecologic coverage examines pelvic anatomy, the menstrual cycle, postmenopausal imaging, and infertility-related topics. Obstetric review progresses from the first trimester to fetal organ systems, chromosomal abnormalities, multiple gestations, and maternal complications. The second edition uses a concise narrative approach intended for certification review. Its specialty-based arrangement provides a way to organize ultrasound knowledge around the structures and clinical contexts assessed within these areas of sonography.
Abdominal and Obstetric-Gynecologic Review Areas
The 2nd edition covers the following areas:
- Hepatobiliary and pancreatic imaging: Review the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas.
- Urinary tract and abdominal vessels: Examine urinary structures, adrenal glands, and abdominal vasculature.
- Additional abdominal and superficial structures: Review the gastrointestinal tract, abdominal wall, and superficial imaging.
- Female pelvic anatomy: Explore the uterus, vagina, ovaries, and fallopian tubes.
- Gynecologic imaging contexts: Consider menstrual changes, postmenopausal imaging, and infertility.
- Early pregnancy and fetal anatomy: Review the first trimester and fetal organ systems.
- Complex obstetric topics: Examine chromosomal abnormalities, multiple gestations, and maternal complications.
Organizing Specialty Knowledge for Sonography Review
The book’s main value lies in bringing three related sonography specialties into a single review structure. Candidates can distinguish the abdominal organ survey from gynecologic physiology and obstetric development, then focus their revision on the appropriate section. The fetal material is arranged by anatomical systems, which makes it useful for checking whether a review plan covers the full range of structures rather than concentrating on only one stage of pregnancy. Its concise narrative presentation supports consolidation of material learned during formal training. Readers preparing for ARDMS or ARRT examinations should match this second edition to the requirements of their selected assessment.
