“The images provided are of high quality … . there are some very good short video clips available in the online supplementary information, which accompanies every chapter. There are clips demonstrating good technique and further clips showing examples of typical pathology. Each clip is helpfully explained by an English commentary. … I would like to commend the editors on producing a useful guide to POCUS of the small and large bowel.” (Daniel Bell, RAD Magazine, August, 2024)
