This book is a user-friendly reference guide to ultrasound in gynaecology and early pregnancy.

Laparoscopic surgery brings a range of benefits to patients, resulting in a shorter hospital stay, reduced need for analgesia and a quicker return to normal activity, while the increased visualisation makes some operations less complicated than the open equivalent. This book provides a comprehensive overview of laparoscopic surgery for benign gynaecology and has been designed to reflect the syllabus for the RCOG''s Advanced Training Skills Module (ATSM) in ''Advanced laparoscopic surgery for the excision of benign disease''. Two DVDs are included with the book, giving practical examples of some of the techniques. Topics covered include: entry techniques, preoperative imaging, instruments, theatre environment, training and a range of specific laparoscopic techniques.

This comprehensive book highlights the provision of good-quality care to the victims of sexual and domestic violence, not just for successful prosecutions but for the sake of the victim's mental and physical health. The content covers the syllabi for DFCASA, MFFLM(SOM) Part 2 and the RCOG ATSM in forensic gynaecology.

Based on the RCOG Advanced Training Skills Module in Fetal Medicine, this book provides a comprehensive knowledge base for doctors practising in obstetrics and maternal-fetal medicine. It is well-illustrated with images of normal and abnormal findings in pregnancy. Readers benefit from the vast clinical experience of the internationally renowned authors.
