Patrizio Lancellotti is Professor of Cardiology at Unviersity of
Liege, CHU Sart Tilman, Liege, Belgium where he also acts as
director of the Cardiogist Intensive Unit and is the head of the
Echo Lab and Heart Valve Clinic. He is currently President of the
European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging and has been a board
memeber of the European Association of Echocardiography since 2004.
Bernard Cosyns is Professor of Cardiology at Free University of
Brussels.
Has been a memeber of the European Association of Echocardiography
since 2004. He is currently an executive board member of the
European Society of Cardiology.
The elaboration of individual thematic areas is excellent,
integrating extensive insights from the expert literature in a
logical and easily-intelligible way.

This handbook is highly practical and meticulous, and would be of
interest to a wide range of professionals in and beyond the field
of echocardiography.
