Fetal Medicine: An Illustrated Textbook
By Zarko Alfirevic, Seshadri Suresh, Jonathan Hyett
Evidence-based clinical guidelines are designed to provide systematically developed recommendations to assist clinicians and their patients in making decisions about appropriate treatment for specific conditions. While these may often be widely available, nowhere are they collated into a single, practical text. This book will fill this need for those working in maternal-fetal medicine, comprehensively covering the conditions, diagnostic and therapeutic challenges faced by those working in fetal care. Presented in highly illustrated, algorithm format with fetograms and autopsy correlations included, this book will aid in the diagnosis, investigation, counselling and therapeutic options for the management of fetal abnormalities and disorders.
Evidence-based clinical guidelines are an essential resource for clinicians and their patients, providing recommendations for appropriate treatment for specific conditions. However, these guidelines are often scattered and not compiled into a single, practical text. That is where the book “Evidence-Based Guidelines in Maternal-Fetal Medicine” comes in to fill this need. Written by a team of experts in the field, including Zarko Alfirevic, Seshadri Suresh, and Jonathan Hyett, this comprehensive book covers the conditions, diagnostic challenges, and therapeutic options faced by those working in fetal care.

What sets this book apart from other resources is its evidence-based approach.
