PY - 2021 T2 - Ma and Mateer's Emergency Ultrasound, 4e AB - Over the past three decades, point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has become routinely utilized as a diagnostic tool by radiologists, emergency physicians, and surgeons, evaluating intra-abdominal pathology, particularly hepatobiliary, vascular, urologic, and gynecologic disorders.
