Cardiac Catheterization and Percutaneous Interventions

This well-written text provides the new interventionalist with the basics required for cardiac catheterization as well as the latest developments for drug eluting stents, imaging, cardiac flow, the analysis of good and bad results, as well as many more standard routines. Most of the contributors have worked with one of the world's leading interventional cardiologists, Patrick W Serruys of Rotterdam. Under his guidance in one of the busiest cath labs anywhere, the contributors absorbed a considerable amount of technique-based knowledge and experienced high-risk cases not seen in smaller units. Their experience there and in their present positions is the basis for this book.Kay, I. Patrick is the author of 'Cardiac Catheterization and Percutaneous Interventions', published 2004 under ISBN 9781841842301 and ISBN 1841842303.
