Comprehensive and clinically oriented, this brand-new reference updates the rapidly advancing field of cardiac catheterization and angiography. It offers state-of-the-art information on the very latest diagnostic and therapeutic techniques developed over the past decade. The text if divided into three sections--Methods, Diagnosis, and Therapy. For each area of discussion, the text covers modern techniques for intravascular and intracardiac acquisition and interpretation of cardiovascular physiologic signals. It highlights contemporary methods for the performance, quantification, and interpretation of cardiac and pulmonary angiographic images. It also provides in-depth coverage of cardiac and pulmonary physiology, pathophysiology and pathoanatomy as revealedby cardiac catheterization and angiography. Finally, the text reviews basic interventional techniques using catheter technology for the treatment of common cardiac disease processes in adults, including obstructive coronary atherosclerosis, valvular stenosis, cardiac arrhythmias, and more. The result is an exhaustively comprehensive and authoritative multi-authored text! Drs. Peterson and Nicod, together with 22 expert contributors, highlight the best available clinical examples--helping readers to choose the most effective management options for their patients. Provides step-by-step guidelines for each procedure in the realm of right and left heart catheterization as well as cardiac and coronary angiography. Delivers complete coverage of the following hot topics--the methods for studying pulmonary circulation, including pulmonary angiography and angioscopy, the catheterization and angiographic findings in the patient with pulmonary hypertension, and many more. Describes the basic components of a catheterization lab's radiographic systems--x-ray tubes, image intensifiers, cine-film cameras, video cameras, image archival devices and more--in easy-to-understand terms. Surveys state-of-the-art therapeutic interventions, including plaque excisional atherectomy, rotational ablation, the emerging importance of coronay stent implantation, and more.
