Handbook of the Vulnerable Plaque
Edited by: Patrick W. Serruys, Ron Waksman, Johannes Schaar
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1841843237
Pub Date: 19 FEB 2004
Type: Hardback Book
'... ground-breaking handbook ... offers a definitive study of this phenomenon.' - Electronic Review
Despite being an important and rapidly evolving topic, this totally updated second edition, with 10 additional chapters, provides authoritative information for diagnosis and treatment. A comprehensive guide to understanding its many complexities and its role in interventional cardiology, Handbook of the Vulnerable Plaque:
* translates the ideas of the vulnerable plaque into clinical practice
* introduces the epidemiology, genetic determination, biology, and pathology of vulnerable plaques
* includes chapters on detection and diagnosis review biomarkers, MRI, intravascular thermography, intravascular ultrasound, and optical coherence tomography
* covers possible treatment options such as drug therapy, photodynamic therapy, and drug-eluting stents
* describes industry representation and device selection.
An instructional tool, this second edition is an important resource for honing diagnostic capabilities and providing prevention and treatment strategies to reduce the incidence of acute coronary syndrome, acute myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death.
