Opis: Cardiovascular Imaging - Yi-Hwa Liu, Frans J. Wackers, Y Liu

In Cardiovascular Imaging the authors deal systematically with the main imaging techniques available to clinical cardiologists: nuclear imaging, echocardiography, computerized tomography and magnetic-resonance imaging. Following a brief overview of non-invasive cardiac imaging and the stress modalities used to detect coronary disease, a mainly case-based chapter is devoted to each of the imaging techniques in turn. The final chapter takes a look into the future, particularly to molecular imaging. The text is illustrated throughout with generously-sized images. Cardiovascular Imaging is intended for use by clinical cardiologists, cardiologists in training, radiologists, technicians and nuclear physicians. Well written, concise, easy to read and flows in an easy to understand manner... expertly written, well referenced chapters which include very useful clinical data from well designed research studies... A well written basic imaging textbook that is informative for the healthcare practitioner trainee and the imaging specialist. -- Fay Ahmad Echo 20100601 Well written... The evidence used to support each modality is up to date... the 18 cases covering cardiac radionuclide imaging are particularly good... Overall it is nicely written and provides a sound text for the inexperienced reader looking to expand his/her knowledge. -- James Stirrup British Journal of Hospital Medicine 20100701 Concise and easy to read with well referenced chapters, perfect for a radiology / cardiology trainee, or other health care practitioner with interest in this subject. Its strength lies in the fact that it covers all non-invasive cardiovascular imaging modalities with a streamlined approach... Well written and presented... Images are generally of good quality..a well written basic cardiovascular imaging book that is informative in both its text and in the clinical cases illustrated. -- Dr Nicke Screaton and Dr Caroline McCann Cardiology News 20110415Contents 1 Assessment of Cardiovascular Disease by Noninvasive Cardiac Imaging Techniques 2 Cardiac Computerized Tomography and Angiography 3 Nuclear Cardiac Imaging 4 Echocardiographic Imaging 5 Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging 6 Prospects for Cardiovascular Imaging-Molecular Imaging Index
