This series of four video tapes, which is based on the demonstrations pre-recorded by Robert H Anderson and Anton E Becker, two prominent European morphologists, shows the essence of the abnormal morphology within carefully selected autopsy specimens, comparing the findings with appropriately dissected normal hearts, and supplementing the anatomic material with diagrams and cartoons. Accompanying these tapes is an explanatory book prepared with extensive full colour illustrations based on the specimens and diagrams used in the videos and supplemented by appropriate material from the extensive...

This video is the first in a series which will introduce the viewer to a philosophic approach for, and a morphologic background to, the diagnosis of children with congenitally malformed hearts. In each video we demonstrate the anatomy as seen in echocardiographic cuts, relating to the three-dimensional structure of the heart and then show the echocardiographic images themselves, demonstrating the window from which they have been obtained. The first video is the essential introduction to normality, showing the orthogonal planes of the heart relative to the body, and illustrates how the...
