EACVI HANDBOOK OF NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY


Book Description

Part of the European Society of Cardiology portfolio of titles, the EACVI Handbook of Nuclear Cardiology serves as a user-friendly clinical guide to the field of nuclear cardiology. Covering all aspects of this ever-expanding area, it is an indispensable tool in the diagnosis and management of patients with heart failure (ischemic and non-ischemic), amyloid heart disease, endocarditis, myocarditis, and cardiac sarcoidosis. The handbook includes many images, tables, and bullet points that can be used daily in your busy practice to refresh your memory on various cardiac pathologies. The illustrations are derived from a typical clinical practice and the easy accessible format allows you as a reader to focus on the “typical findings” of various cardiac pathologies. Written by an international collection of experts this concise and practical handbook will appeal to students, trainees or advanced users; cardiologists, radiologists, cardiac surgeons or technicians, in their everyday practice.




Nuclear Cardiac Imaging


Book Description

Nuclear cardiac imaging is the diagnostic technique of using radiology and chemical markers to track cardiac performance. These imaging studies provide a wide range of information about the heart, including how much the heart contracts, the amount of blood supply to the heart and whether parts of the heart muscle are alive or dead. This is essential information for cardiologists, and nuclear imaging has become an increasingly important part of the cardiologist's armoury of diagnostic techniques. Iskandrian's text has become a leading book in the field and the fourth edition will continue the tradition. The text is updated throughout to reflect the many advances in the field, and, as a new feature, each chapter concludes with a question and answer session on important and difficult clinical issues.




Nuclear Cardiology


Book Description

This is a clinical guide for physicians in need of practical information on the indications for and interpretations of the results of a nuclear test.




Atlas of Nuclear Cardiology


Book Description

In Atlas of Nuclear Cardiology, Doctors Dilsizian and Narula have worked together with over a dozen leading authorities to capture the most up-to-date and pertinent information in the field of nuclear cardiology. This atlas is a modern and complete visual library of up-to-date information on the most current cardiovascular nuclear procedures in the clinical practice of cardiology. Together with detailed legends and extensive reference listings, the over 600 illustrations deliver comprehensive information. Diagnostic algorithms and schematic diagrams integrated with nuclear cardiology procedures are generously interspersed with color images to emphasize key concepts in cardiovascular physiology and metabolism. This vital reference provides a detailed and accurate insight into the noninvasive evaluation and quantification of myocardial perfusion, function, and metabolism.

Cardiac PET and PET/CT Imaging


Book Description

This book presents the most up-to-date information on the practice of cardiac PET and hybrid PET/CT. Each chapter takes a step-by-step approach, from basic principles of instrumentation, imaging, and protocols to advanced discussions of current and future clinical applications. Coverage also includes a perspective on other emerging imaging modalities, such as MRI, and the relative role of each. In addition, the volume details the technical aspects of cardiac PET and PET/CT imaging. A library of original cases completes the text by illustrating interpretation and technical challenges in cardiac PET and hybrid PET/CT.




Integrating Cardiology for Nuclear Medicine Physicians


Book Description

Nuclear cardiology is no longer a medical discipline residing solely in nuclear medicine. This is the first book to recognize this fact by integrating in-depth information from both the clinical cardiology and nuclear cardiology literature, and acknowledging cardiovascular medicine as the fundamental knowledge base needed for the practice of nuclear cardiology. The book is designed to increase the practitioner's knowledge of cardiovascular medicine, thereby enhancing the quality of interpretations through improved accuracy and clinical relevance.The text is divided into four sections covering all major topics in cardiology and nuclear cardiology: Basic Sciences and Cardiovascular Diseases Conventional Diagnostic Modalities Nuclear Cardiology Management of Cardiovascular Diseases
