<Message from the Editor>
This book is designed to help veterinarians learn the basics and applications of emergency ultrasound and use it effectively in actual clinical settings. It covers basic emergency ultrasound operating procedures, how to extract normal images, diagnostic algorithms, and even approaches using emergency ultrasound for many cases. It is designed to help readers hone their emergency ultrasound skills and use them in actual medical practice. Emergency medicine is evolving every day. It is a major mission for veterinarians to incorporate new techniques and knowledge and work on the front lines to protect the lives of animals. We sincerely hope that this book will help them do so. Let's learn and grow together to master emergency ultrasound and save the lives of as many animals as possible.
Supervised by Hirohiro Kawase

＜From the EDUWARD Press editorial department＞
This book is recommended for doctors who are interested in emergency ultrasound but lack confidence, or who have tried emergency ultrasound but are not sure how to interpret it. The procedure and interpretation of emergency ultrasound are explained in detail with plenty of photos and videos. In addition, 17 cases in which emergency ultrasound was used for diagnosis and treatment are published! The case reports also include a section that allows you to peek into the minds of emergency physicians. You can take a close look at what emergency physicians think about various findings when they actually face a case and how they diagnose and treat it. In addition, the procedure steps required to escape the emergency state are published on a double page spread. This is a book full of content that teaches you the entire diagnostic process from applying the emergency ultrasound to escaping the emergency state. I hope it will be useful for doctors in their daily medical practice.
