Produktbeschreibung

This book and supporting CD are part of the ESC Education Series. The series is designed to provide medical professionals with the latest information about the understanding, diagnosis and management of cardiovascular diseases. Non-invasive imaging is developing a frantic pace and is being implemented more and more in the diagnostic and prognostic work-up of patients with heart disease. this volume provides insight into the use of different imaging modalities in clinical settings, focusing on frequently observed diseases, rather than the imaging modalities themselves. This logical approach provides basic information on the relevance of each imaging modality in these various diseases, and then highlights each one in a clinical case that all cardiologists will frequently encounter. Cardiovascular imaging: An handbook for clinical practice is an essential contribution to your collection.
