For over fifty years, this volume has remained the definitive reference work in the field of arterial hemodynamics, covering arterial structure and function with special emphasis on pulsatile flow and pressure. The sixth edition continues to provide the theoretical basis required for a thorough understanding of arterial blood flow in both normal and pathological conditions, while keeping clinical considerations and readability paramount throughout the text. With an abundance of illustrations to clarify key principles, the book discusses arterial biomarkers, atherosclerosis, specific arterial disease, generalized and metabolic disease, and therapeutic strategies.
