DESCRIZIONE

This new book covers the use of imaging as a diagnostic tool for a variety of cardiac problems. While there are many modality-based imaging references on the market, this one is unique in that the various modalities are discussed in brief but appropriate detail, but concentrates on the utilisation of these modalities in the investigation of cardiovascular disease. The organisation by topic is useful for comparison of the various techniques and imaging choices. Imaging is a major part of the practice of general cardiology and this book highlights the main techniques available to the cardiologist, as well as the use of new technologies. ContentsSection A 1.
