Interventional operators generally expect complications when the coronary anatomy is tortuous; however, it is normal anatomy with what appear angiographically as 'regular' lesions that can cause great difficulty and additional morbidity. Drs Colombo's and Stankovic's team of first-rate, globally-recognized interventional cardiologists offer advice
Written by pioneers in the field of interventional cardiology, this new edition provides readers with the information and expert guidance needed to perform safe and effective transcatheter aortic valve implantation/replacement (TAVI/TAVR). The book is supplemented by visual aids, including more than 300 illustrations and videos.
An illustrated step-by-step procedures manual, this excellent atlas guides people through the majority of interventional procedures. The accompanying text discusses and comments on the procedures as well as provides answers to potential pitfalls or complications--all supplemented with detailed illustrations for enhanced understanding.
The landmark text that belongs in the hands of every cardiologist―fully updated and reorganized to make it more patient-centric than ever A Doody's Core Title for 2023! World-famous for its authority and clinical relevance, Fuster and Hurst’s The Heart is cardiology’s longest continuously published reference book. Written to meet the ever-changing needs of cardiologists, fellows, and interns, this trusted classic offers a solid foundation in cardiovascular medicine and complete coverage of all major cardiovascular topics. This fifteenth edition presents a greater focus on the practicalities of patient care. Additionally, the content is ordered in a more methodical pattern, from mechani...

This medical reference book contains focused chapters on how to utilize cutting-edge interventional technologies, with an emphasis on the latest protocols and standards of care. Cardiovascular Intervention also includes late-breaking clinical trials, "Hot off the Press" commentary, and Focused Reviews that are relevant to interventional cardiology. - View immersive videos from an online library of procedural clips located on Expert Consult. - Remain abreast of the newest interventional techniques, including next-generation stents, invasive lesion assessment, and methods to tackle complex anatomy. - Provide optimal patient care with help from easy-to-access information on the latest diagnostic and treatment advances, discussions on percutaneous approaches to structural heart disease, and new developments in treating heart valve disease.
Handbook of Interventions for Structural Heart and Peripheral Vascular Disease is a comprehensive and highly illustrated resource for cardiologists, featuring the latest available treatment modalities and discussion on future developments. Divided into six sections, the book begins with a history of peripheral vascular interventions, with further sections on the evaluation of peripheral vascular disease, structural heart diseases, peripheral vascular interventions, aorta, and recent advances in the field. Topics covered across the book’s 35 chapters include clinical presentation, imaging required for planning surgical procedures, selection of equipment, various surgical techniques, intraoperative pitfalls and possible complications. Over 340 illustrations and tables, including 282 full colour images, enhance this essential resource for practising cardiologists wishing to remain up to date in the field of vascular intervention. Key Points Comprehensive, up to date resource for cardiologists Discussion on the latest available treatment modalities Anticipates future trends in vascular intervention 344 illustrations and tables (including 282 full colour images)
This book contains the written contributions to the program of the First In ternational Conference on Computer Vision, Virtual Reality, and Robotics in Medicine (CVRMed'95) held in Nice during the period April 3-6, 1995. The articles are regrouped into a number of thematic sessions which cover the three major topics of the field: medical image understanding, registration problems in medicine, and therapy planning, simulation and control. The objective of the conference is not only to present the most innovative and promising research work but also to highlight research trends and to foster dialogues and debates among participants. This event was decided after a preliminary successful symposi...

In the era of instant global communication, medicine is an international discipline characterized by a wide range of patient referral systems, world-wide discussion of clinical and research findings, and an explosion in the medical literature. Perhaps no field has progressed more than cardiology in the past few years. Contemporary Concepts in Cardiology has been conceived as a supplement to the classic cardiology textbooks for the use of practicing physicians, cardiologists-in-training, medical students, and research investigators. This volume focuses on associations between refinements in the understanding of disease and clinical applications. The material is presented in a way that limns t...
This book provides a comprehensive survey of the pharmacokinetic models used for the quantitative interpretation of contrast-enhanced imaging. It discusses all the available imaging technologies and the problems related to the calibration of the imaging system and accuracy of the estimated physiological parameters. Enhancing imaging modalities using contrast agents has opened up new opportunities for going beyond morphological information and enabling minimally invasive assessment of tissue and organ functionality down to the molecular level. In combination with mathematical modeling of the contrast agent kinetics, contrast- enhanced imaging has the potential to provide clinically valuable a...
