This book is focus on the differential diagnosis of fetal syndromes since the findings during routine ultrasound scans toward the syndrome. This is very complicated in the clinical practice and this book is a perfect complement to genetic syndromes books like Smith. A book that every doctor in fetal medicine must buy.
