In this pathbreaking volume, a multidisciplinary team of

diseases alongside a discussion of imaging tools and functional
tests, and a comparison to alternative treatment approaches
provided by cardiovascular surgery.

This comprehensive overview of interventional
cardiology:

* Explains treatments in depth, including imaging techniques and
functional tests

* Serves as both a theoretical and practical guide to available
treatment approaches that can be tailored for individual
patients

* Provides the latest scientific data and new surgical
alternatives

* Presents a practically oriented view of the most important
interventional strategies

* Is written by a strong team of well-published and
highly-regarded authors, the people whose breakthroughs in the
clinic and the lab have made interventional cardiology the dynamic
field it is today

Practitioners, fellows, and trainees who want a state-of-the-art
guide to interventional cardiology can depend on this carefully
crafted guide for authoritative information.
