Essential interventional cardiology

This versatile text covers the basic principles and practice of interventional cardiology, vascular and non-vascular, written specifically for the general cardiologist. Designed to facilitate easy access to key information, it contains numerous line illustrations, diagrams, graphs, and charts. The entire spectrum of interventional cardiology is covered in an easy-to-read format. In thisnew edition are fifteen new chapters written by experts from around the world. The excellent appendix of trials in interventional cardiology has been fullyupdated making this the best available source on how to apply trials to clinical practice. INDICE: Section I.
