    I love this format! Fantastic interface where you can instantaneously see examples and expand them to fill the whole screen. Better than any print textbook I have read….goodbye to paper.
  • Excellent interface, but very basic

    Great interface with lots of high quality images, movies and illustrations. However, the level of content is far to basic for echocardiographers, cardiology fellows, or cardiologists. The book does not even cover any information on the tricuspid or pulmonic valves. I think this could be a great resource if the time and energy were put into making a more complete text by way of more pathologies, looking at diastolic dysfunction, cardiac tumors, interpretation of pulse and color wave Dopplers, amongst other needed topics.
