Too tiny to see with the naked eye, the human embryo was just a hypothesis until the microscope made observation of embryonic development possible. This changed forever our view of the minuscule cluster of cells that looms large in questions about the meaning of life. Embryos under the Microscope examines how our scientific understanding of the embryo has evolved from the earliest speculations of natural philosophers to today's biological engineering, with its many prospects for life-enhancing therapies. Jane Maienschein shows that research on embryos has always revealed...

Different technologies have been introduced to improve management of labor. To date there is no single text that aims at covering all these technologies that address different problems and issues in labor management.

The book reviews new technologies and devices aimed to improve labor management and outcomes. These diverge between looking at a better way to use fetal heart rate monitors (that are used in 90% of labours); using new monitors to detect the

This book provides the first clinically comprehensive and practical approach to ethical challenges in perinatal medicine.The first chapter introduces and explains the professional responsibility model of perinatal ethics.The professional responsibility model is based on the medical ethics of two major physician-ethics in the history of Western medical ethics, Dr. John Gregory (1724-1773) of Scotland and Dr. Thomas Percival (1740-1804) of England.The professional responsibility model is used to articulate the ethical concept of the fetus as a patient and to operationalize the ethical...

Fur den Frauenarzt stellt die Sonographie das wichtigste bildgebende Verfahren dar. Im Bereich der Gynakologie und auch der Fruhgraviditat ist dies vor allem die Transvaginale Sonographie (TVS). Mit ihr lasst sich durch die geringe Distanz hochauflosender Schallsonden zu den Organen des Kleinen Beckens das innere Genitale und seine Umgebung detailgenau beurteilen und pathologische und funktionelle Veranderungen an Uterus und Adnexen genau detektieren. Mit zusatzlichen Techniken (Farbdoppler, Volumenscan 3D/4D u. a.) kann eine wesentliche Verfeinerung - insbesondere bei der...
