Cardiac Catheterization and Coronary Intervention is the first
handbook-sized practical training guide for cardiology medical and
technical personnel who want easily accessible, detailed
information on how to perform a comprehensive left and/or right
heart catheterization procedure, choose the correct catheter for
coronary and graft angiography, perform a diagnostic coronary
angiogram and interpret and understand their findings. Based on
international cardiology and interventional
society guidelines, it aims to demystify the investigations while
remaining authoritative and concise.
What a wonderful little handbook, written by a group who have considerable knowledge and practical expertise in this area... The text is beautifully and extensively illustrated... It packs a lot into a pocket sized book. Dr Iain A Simpson, Consultant Cardiologist, Southhampton University Hospitals. This is an excellent handbook and practical guide for practitioners who are training to perform cardiac catheterization and intervention. It is concise, well written, and contains outstanding diagrams, photographs, and tables. Doody's Notes (Dr Bijesh Maroo, Ochsner Clinic Foundation) Can the history and techniques of cardiac catheterisation really be encompassed in a pocket-sized handbook? Clearly the answer is 'yes'.
