Color Atlas Of Cardiology

This colour atlas presents clinicians with the latest techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of heart disorders. Divided into sections dedicated to a specific area of the heart, each topic begins with discussion on normal anatomy, function and pathology. Diseases and disorders associated with that region are then described in depth. Both well established and emerging device-based therapies are covered, as well as cutting edge imaging techniques including 3D echocardiography, 4D MRI, optical coherence tomography, and ECG mapping. American and European practice guidelines for the management of specific cardiovascular diseases are also summarised. Edited by Houston-based specialist, Glenn N Levine, and with contributions from more than 150 internationally recognised cardiovascular experts, this comprehensive manual contains more than 3000 digital images covering gross and microscopic pathology, schematic figures and numerous tables and flow charts. A DVD ROM illustrating imaging results is also included.

A unique combination color atlas and synoptic text on interventional cardiology procedures Within the field cardiovascular medicine, interventional cardiology has evolved rapidly in the last decade. In particular, there are advanced therapeutic valvular interventions that compare to historical outcomes with surgical approaches. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement may soon become the standard of care, and transcatheter mitral valve interventions continue to develop rapidly. In addition, improvements in drug-eluting stent technology continue to improve long-term outcomes. Keeping in mind of these rapid advances in interventional cardiology, we have put together this color atlas and synopsis of interventional cardiology to enable medical students, postgraduate physician trainees, practicing clinicians, including physician assistants, nurse practitioners, internal medicine physicians, and general practitioners so that they can rapidly assimilate information on a wide variety of interventional cardiology related topics. This practical, highly clinical resource fills the need in the literature for an interventional cardiology reference that provides expert textual guidance on patient diagnosis and management, along with a comprehensive collection of images (many in full color) illustrating specific procedures. FEATURES: •Logically divided into four sections: The Hemodynamic Study, Percutaneous Coronary Interventions, Non-Coronary Cardiac Interventions, and Peripheral Interventions •Strong focus on normal anatomy, radiographic anatomy, indications, contraindications, interpretations, and patient management •Most chapters begin with a case scenario, putting the issue into clinical, real-world perspective. This beautifully illustrated, concisely written resource is perfect for busy cardiologists of all specialties who require broad coverage of the topic in a convenient, quick-access presentation.

A combination color atlas and synoptic text on the unique risk factors and cardiovascular issues specific to women Recent research has demonstrated important sex differences in the pathophysiology and clinical presentation of cardiovascular disease in women. There are important risk factors for cardiovascular disease in women that differ from men, and risk assessment tools that should be routinely incorporated into clinical practice by cardiologists treating women. Color Atlas and Synopsis of Women's Cardiovascular Health covers all of these topics and also provides concise, expert guidance on the diagnosis and management of the female cardiac patient. Enriched by more than 100 photographs (many in full color) and nearly 100 line drawings, Color Atlas and Synopsis of Women's Cardiovascular Health addresses many important issues related to women's cardiovascular health. With contributions from more than a dozen expert authors, Color Atlas and Synopsis of Women's Cardiovascular Health is destined to become a landmark reference on the issues of cardiac disease in women. TOPICS INCLUDE: Defining patterns of ischemic heart disease Cardiac surgery Noninvasive imaging as a tool for accurate diagnosis of cardiovascular disease in women Sex-specific issues in cardiac surgery Unique cardiac issues related to women with pulmonary hypertension Cardiac issues that can arise during pregnancy
