The first – and best – primer for the cardiovascular interventionalist – updated with more than twenty new chapters and all-new Q&A
Filling a crucial gap in procedural knowledge, this groundbreaking reference was the first to focus on interventional cardiovascular procedures. Interventional Cardiology, Second Edition includes a completely updated section on procedures, as well as chapters on the necessary scientific foundation, to which specialists will refer every day in their clinical practice. In addition, each procedural chapter is enhanced by valuable tips and pitfalls from an internationally recognized group of experts.
The comprehensive coverage of this groundbreaking resource is highly accessible, thanks to a well-organized full-color format that synthesizes important information and provides a consistent template in describing each procedure. Throughout the book, charts and tables help to summarize key concepts and can serve as the basis for a detailed overview.
