Description
Book SynopsisThis book is a practical guide providing cardiologists with the latest advances in interventional cardiology.
Divided into 24 chapters, much of the text is dedicated to procedures for the diagnosis and management of occlusive coronary artery disease.
Basic and complex techniques are described in detail, with useful tips on how to prevent or manage complications.
Guidance on decision making in the cath lab based on recent data is also provided.
The comprehensive text is further enhanced by nearly 200 clinical images, diagrams and tables.
