Book SynopsisThis open access book presents a wide portfolio of examples of positron emission tomography coupled with computer tomography (PET/CT) studies in various cardiac conditions in order to provide a rationale for the implementation of this technology in an array of clinical conditions. Cardiovascular diseases are a major contributor to premature morbidity and mortality worldwide. Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are particularly affected by cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), with more than 75% of all CVDs deaths occurring in these countries. For this reason, target 3.4 of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda aims at a 30% reduction in premature mortality due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which include CVDs, by 2030. Among CVDs, ischemic heart disease (IHD) plays an important role and, according to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), it was responsible for 15.96% of global deaths in 2017. Between 2000 and 2017, the number of IHD deaths worldwide increased by 0.26% per year. Several imaging tools help to non-invasively diagnose, stratify risk and guide management in cardiac disease. They include nuclear cardiology techniques, using either SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography) or PET/CT. While myocardial imaging with SPECT has been fully embraced by the cardiology community and is widely available worldwide, PET/CT introduction has been slower, due not only to its higher costs, but also to the limited availability of PET/VCT scanners, mostly utilized for oncological applications. This book is an invaluable tool for nuclear medicine physicians, cardiologists and radiologists.Table of ContentsPreface1. TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR CARDIAC PET/CT2.

Book SynopsisDer plötzliche Herzstillstand zählt weltweit zu den höchsten Todesursachen. Hört das Herz zu schlagen auf, fehlt die lebensnotwendige Durchblutung des Gehirns und der inneren Organe. Nur 20 von 100 Betroffenen überleben. Die Chancen steigen mit dem frühzeitigen Beginn hochwertiger Erster Hilfe. Das Buch beschreibt einfach und leicht verständlich die korrekte Reihenfolge der Reanimationsmaßnahmen bei Erwachsenen und Kindern sowie in besonderen Situationen, wie z.B. Erstickungsgefahr. Mit dieser Anleitung kann im Notfall mit simplen Handgriffen ein Leben gerettet werden: Notruf, Herzdruckmassage, Defibrillatoreinsatz. Der Autor und Fotograf schuf mit diesem Buch aber auch einen emotionalen und künstlerischen Appell zur Ersten Hilfe. In einer Portraitserie zeigt er Menschen aus unterschiedlichsten Lebensbereichen, die eines gemeinsam haben – sie alle haben dank des Eingreifens ihrer Mitmenschen einen Herzstillstand überlebt. Sie wurden von couragierten Ersthelferinnen und Ersthelfern wiederbelebt.Table of ContentsPorträts.- Leitlinien.-Anhang.

Book SynopsisNuclear cardiology is one of the most widely used non-invasive techniques for the assessment of coronary artery disease and other cardiovascular conditions. It has proved to be a cost effective tool for the evaluation and management of cardiac patients and usually has a decisive role for diagnosis, prognosis and risk stratification. In particular, radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is used extensively worldwide for the evaluation of known or suspected coronary artery disease, with an estimated 15–20 million procedures performed annually. This publication provides a detailed analysis of all the steps involved in the delivery of nuclear cardiology services, from referrals to reporting, and is intended to serve as guidance for the implementation, homogenization and enhancement of MPI practice in those Member States where the technique is under development.

Book SynopsisCardiac critical care is an emerging technology. The existing literature has bundles of protocols applied in cardiac critical care intensive care unit. However, there is no textbook that exists for students’ reference. For undergraduates, postgraduates, and paramedical staff in cardiac critical care medicine, the increased demand and growth in critical care for cardiac patients necessitates further training. Textbook of Cardiac Critical Care, a brand new, practical resource, helps meet that need. The cardiac critical care division worldwide is still in its infancy, but the book has taken up the challenges of developing this evolving specialty with the entire modern infrastructure at its disposal for state-of-the-art delivery of health care to the most critically ill adult and pediatric cardiac patients. Key Highlights: A straightforward approach, abundant detailed images, and latest references provide step-by-step guidance on the principles and effective use of important imaging modality in both diagnosis and assistance with specific procedures. Coverage includes the latest advances in ECMO, ECHO, and cardiac critical care.
