Description
Book SynopsisInflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels< Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels
Second Edition
Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels provides a comprehensive overview of the science and clinical consequences of vascular inflammation in health and disease. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in understanding different forms of vasculitis. Investigation of pathogenesis of vascular inflammation has led to improved treatments and outcomes. Surgical and transplant procedures have improved in parallel with medical therapies. These areas are extensively examined in this new edition.
Inflammatory Diseases of Blood Vessels is an excellent resource for a broad readership, including clinicians, investigators and their support teams in numerous specialties e.g. rheumatology, immunology, cardiology, cardiovascular surgery, pulmonary medicine, nephrology, pathology, vascular biology, embryology and imaging.
Trade Review
“This book provides a comprehensive overview of the science and clinical consequences of vascular inflammation in health and disease.” (European Journal of Immunology, 1 December 2012)
“Overall, this is an excellent source of information on vasculitis for physicians at any level, including practicing rheumatologists.” (Doody’s, 2 November 2012)
