Handbook of Coronary Stents
Surgeons refer to this classic text again and again, partly because of the clarity of its innovative format, so useful and popular that it has been copied by others. This technical manual, now in its fourth edition, profiles all of the commercially available stents and some of those in early registry. The technical specifications of the stent and d
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Written by pioneers in the field of interventional cardiology, this critical text provides readers with the information and expert guidance needed to perform safe and effective transcatheter aortic valve implantations (TAVI). The book is supplemented by visual aids, including more than 200 color illustrations and downloadable resources with bonus footage that detail each preprocedural, intraprocedural, and postprocedural step of TAVI—enabling readers to utilize TAVI devices correctly to improve patient results. The book focuses on the CoreValve and Edwards devices, but also provides practical, basic information applicable to any transcatheter aortic valve device.
The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine
Following the structure and format of the ESC core syllabus, this text introduces key concepts in the field of cardiovascular medicine.
Handbook of Drug-Eluting Stents
Over the past few years, the focus in interventional cardiology research has centered on reducing restenosis with the use of antiproliferative pharmacological agents. The use of these drugs, hitherto, has failed, most probably because of low active drug levels at the target site. This problem led to the development of local drug delivery using stents, since they can serve as a reservoir for local drug administration and are in immediate contract with the coronary artery wall, thus ensuring maximum delivery of the pharmacological agent. Drug-eluting stents provide an entirely new spectrum of potential therapies for restenosis. Handbook of Drug-Eluting Stents, under the editorial direction of Patrick Serruys, one of the world's leading interventional cardiologists, and Tony Gershlick, a pioneer in the field of drug-eluting stents, provides the reader with up-to-date information on which stents and pharmacological agents in use or about to be launched, the kinetics of the drugs involved, and what the future may hold.

Optical Coherence Tomography in Cardiovascular Research
Given that for centuries, the standard tool to understand diseases in tissues was the microscope and that its major limitation was that only excised tissue could be used, recent technology now permits the examination of diseased tissue in vivo. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has promising potential when applied to coronary artery disease. OCT h
Interventional Cardiology
Expert guidance from internationally recognized authorities, who provide clear and current updates on all aspects of interventional cardiology. This new edition; Contains a radically expanded chapter contents list presented in four clear sections; coronary interventions, interventional pharmacology, structural heart interventions, and endovascular therapy Includes 46 new chapters, including the latest advances in bioresorbable coronary stents, advanced transcatheter aortic valve replacement, MitraClip, new transcatheter mitral valve interventions, and more Chapters are templated for rapid referral, beginning with pathophysiological background and relevant pathology, moving to mechanisms of treatment, device description, procedural techniques, follow-up care, and ending with risks, contraindications and complications Multiple choice questions at the end of each chapter for self-assessment, a total of more than 400 MCQs in the book Features 19 procedural videos, hosted on a companion website
Textbook of Interventional Cardiovascular Pharmacology
While all interventional cardiologists have access to pharmacopeial texts and databases and are aware of the growing number of pharmacological agents in the armamentarium, questions arise as to the ideal agent or combination of agents in differing patient situations. This superb text offers the reader coverage of all the major pharmacological t
Quantitative Coronary Angiography in Clinical Practice
Quantitative coronary angiography has become an invaluable tool for the interventional cardiologist, providing objective and reproducible measurements of coronary artery dimensions, which can be used to study progression or regression of coronary atherosclerosis, as well as the immediate and long term effects of percutaneous interventions. Until recently, this powerful imaging technology was confined to a small number of so-called high level institutions. Fortunately, with the development of digital cardiac imaging equipment and adaptation of cine-angiographically based computer software for on-line use in the catheterization room, quantitative coronary angiography is now available to all in...
Bioresorbable Scaffolds
This book focuses on the coronary bioresorbable scaffold, a new interventional treatment for coronary artery disease, differentiated from a permanent metallic stent. The book provides an overview of the technology including non-clinical studies and clinical evidences in order to help clinicians understand the appropriate application of the technology and the optimal techniques of implantation. It covers the basics of bioresorbable scaffolds; bench test results; preclinical studies; clinical evidences; and tips and tricks of implantation.
