Klappentext zu „Contrast Echocardiography “
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the practical aspects of contrast echocardiography. It also covers all the material in the guidelines published by the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) in 2018 and the recommendations set out by the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) in 2017. Contrast echocardiography at present is only used in 5-10% of cases, but this is expected to grow rapidly following the recommendations of the ASE and EACVI. The chapters cover the approved indications and provide practical advice on how to administer the contrast agents and how to optimize the recordings as well as how to deal with the pitfalls. The reader will find all the information on how to use contrast agents for assessment of shunts, LV volumes and function as well as myocardial diseases and masses. Detailed protocols are included for stress echocardiography and myocardial perfusion imaging. Other topics covered include the use of contrast agents for coronary sonography and transesophageal echocardiography.Contrast Echocardiography: Compendium for Clinical Practice comprehensively covers all aspects of the clinical use of contrast echocardiography and has been written by two cardiologists who share their experience from their high volume echo laboratories. One of the authors has been a member of both the ASE guidelines and EACVI recommendation writing groups. It is therefore, a critical text for echocardiographers and sonographers who perform echocardiography.

Autoren-Porträt von Harald Becher, Andreas Helfen
Dr Andreas Helfen, MD, is a member of the "working group Cardiovascular Ultrasound" of the German Cardiac Society (GCS) and associate spokesman of the section "echocardiography" of the German Society of Ultrasound Medicine (DEGUM). He has been practising as a cardiologist since 2005 and in 2009 became the director of the echocardiography laboratory of the St.-Marien Hospital Lünen, an academic teaching hospital of the University of Münster. He performs more than 2000 echocardiographic examinations per year, including all advanced echocardiography methods. Since 2008 he organized more than 30 workshops on contrast echocardiography all over Germany and was invited as a speaker to national and international congresses. He is an approved course instructor of the German Society of Ultrasound Medicine (level III) and he has lectured in multiple stress echocardiography courses and stress refresher courses. In 2016 and in 2017 he was invited as a speaker and host to webinars of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. In addition to his expertise in echocardiography Dr Helfen has gained extensive experience in interventional cardiology as well as in intensive care medicine. Dr Harald Becher, MD, PhD, former associate Professor at the University of Bonn and the chairman of the "working group Cardiovascular Ultrasound" of the German Cardiac Society (GCS) moved to Oxford, UK in 2001 and became Professor of Cardiac Ultrasound at Oxford University, and consultant cardiologist leading the echocardiography laboratory of the Oxford University Hospital. Since 2010 he is Professor of Medicine and the Heart and Stroke Foundation Chair for Cardiovascular Research at the University of Alberta, Canada. Dr Becher and his group belong to leaders in the development of contrast echocardiography and its implementation into clinical practice. Together with the physicist Peter Burns he wrote the first Handbook of Contrast Echocardiography and is one of the editors of
