Summary: Excellent resource for fellows and technicians
Comment: This is an excellent and comprehensive introductory text in pediatric echocardiography.
I missed the following sections:
1) 2D imaging of coronary arteries, in particular with respect to Kawasaki disease.
2) 2D imaging of pulmonary veins. There is, however, a very good section on Doppler examination of the pulmonary veins.
The Snider/Serwer/Ritter remains an good resource. I am looking forward to a (hopefully) new edition.

Summary: a comprehensive text on paediatric echo.
Comment: the second edition of sniders's text is commendable. the format is simple
and easy to understand. i found two chapters particularly useful.
the chapter on ventricular hypoplasia and diagnostic approach to complex congenital heart disease,especially on dextrocardia.
also useful are the arrangement of diseases as defects of septation, ventriculoarterial connection,inflow, and outflow etc.
an additional boon to the readers is the absence of lenghty discourses on embryology.
an important detailed chapter on fetal echocardiography has been included.
i strongly recommend this text to all those performing paediatric echocardiography.

Summary: Excellent quality in teaching and training!
Comment: I am a resident of Anesthesiology in Taiwan. Obviously, intraoperative echocaridography appeared to be of a great value for cardiac surgeons and anesthesiologists, especialy in pediatric complex heart surgery. We could detect residual defect and inadequate surgical repair in the aid of intraoperative transesophagel echocardiogram. The cardiac surgeons were informed, a quick decision making was made, and the surgical outcome was improved in some patients. This book, not only focusing on the basic technology about performing echocardiogrm, but also emphasizing on possible postoperative problems regarding to inadequate surgical repair and residual defects. It helped me so much in perioperative cardiac mointoring by echocardiogram. I strongly recommend it.
