2-D and 3-D anal ultrasound are among the most recent and advanced tools available for both the diagnosis and the management of anorectal diseases. Anal US may provide the clinician with useful information for both classification, diagnosis and management of anorectal sepsis, anal incontinence and anorectal-perineal chronic pain.

Il libro di testo è concepito per studenti di un primo corso sullo sviluppo di sistemi a microprocessore, nelle Facoltà di Ingegneria e di Scienze. Adattabile a diverse esigenze didattiche, non richiede conoscenze preliminari sui microprocessori e fornisce una solida introduzione all'argomento. L'apprendimento della teoria è facilitato da numerosi esempi ed esercizi, tutti risolti per esteso, e consolidato con la loro verifica funzionale tramite simulazione. Un sito web di libero accesso ospita il software di simulazione gratuito Deeds (Digital Electronics Education and Design Suite), creato e mantenuto dagli autori, e contiene tutto il materiale riguardante gli esempi ed esercizi presentati nel libro. Nel testo vengono prima introdotti i concetti generali, tramite un approccio progettuale che porta alla definizione di un piccolo microprocessore dimostrativo. Viene quindi presentato un secondo microprocessore appositamente pensato per la didattica, di cui se ne approfondisce la programmazione e l'interfacciamento. Il percorso didattico si conclude con numerosi esempi di progetto, verificabili tramite prototipi da realizzare su schede FPGA. Ideale per l'auto-apprendimento, grazie alla simbiosi ottimale con il simulatore Deeds, il libro può essere usato ugualmente con profitto indipendentemente da esso. Il testo racchiude la pluri-decennale esperienza degli autori nell'insegnamento e nello sviluppo di materiale didattico nell'ambito del progetto di sistemi digitali, aggiungendosi al libro precedente "Introduzione al Progetto di Sistemi Digitali" pubblicato dagli autori con Springer nel 2018.
