    Fetal Heart Ultrasound, now in its second edition, has been written as a practical guide for the ultrasound examination of the fetal heart. The fetal heart is considered to be the most important and difficult part of a fetal examination. This book aims not only to clarify and simplify the approach to this examination, but also to define what a normal fetal heart should be, and underline just why this organ remains one of the best warning signs for fetal pathology. It will be useful to trainee and practicing ultrasonographers, ultrasound departments providing obstetric ultrasound services, and obstetricians, gynecologists, radiologists and midwives undertaking course in fetal ultrasonography. "Fetal Heart Ultrasound. How, Why and When ... could represent a supplement to other literature in the field, especially for trainees and ultrasonographers."

  • Psychiatrie légale et criminologie clinique

    • 1st Edition
    • Jean-Louis Senon + 2 more
    • French
    Depuis toujours, psychiatrie et droit, comme santé et justice sont à la recherche d'un difficile équilibre pour mieux soigner et protéger toute personne souffrant de troubles mentaux. Aussi, avec la naissance de la clinique dans le sillage du Traité médico-philosophique sur l'aliénation mentale de Pinel, les aliénistes ont accordé une place centrale à la clinique médicolégale pour reconnaître le malade au-delà du trouble du comportement, et lui apporter les soins indispensables. Cet ouvrage offre une place particulière à la protection de la personne malade et aux soins sans consentement prévus par la loi du 5 juillet 2011 et réformée en 2013. Dans une première partie de psychiatrie légale, après avoir traité de l'organisation des soins en psychiatrie et de la législation hospitalière, il aborde la responsabilité médicale, le droit des patients, la rédaction des certificats et les différentes formes d'expertise en psychiatrie au niveau pratique. En outre, depuis les années 1980, la pratique des équipes de psychiatrie s'intéresse particulièrement à la clinique du passage à l'acte et à la victimologie. Ainsi, la seconde partie, consacrée à la criminologie clinique, s'applique à définir les notions essentielles du droit pénal, puis les aspects cliniques : agression, dangerosité, violences, homicides, victimologie. Destiné aux psychiatres et aux psychologues, cet ouvrage ne se cantonne pas aux cliniciens ou aux experts et peut être utile à tous les professionnels confrontés à la maltraitance, aux violences conjugales et familiales ou encore aux agressions sexuelles.
