Handbook of Angioplasty and Stenting Procedures

Description

The Techniques in Interventional Radiology series of handbooks describes in detail the various interventional radiology procedures and therapies that are in current practice. The series comprises four titles, which in turn cover procedures in angioplasty and stenting, transcatheter embolization and therapy, biopsy and drainage and ablation. Each book is laid out in bullet point format, so that the desired information can be located quickly and easily. Interventional radiologists at all stages, from trainees through to specialists, will find this book a valuable asset for their practice. The Handbook of Angioplasty and Stenting Procedures first discusses the basic tools and principles of these procedures, then moves onto describing each operation that can be performed using these techniques. Dr. Robert Morgan is Consultant Radiologist at St Georges’ Hospital, London, UK, and Dr. Eric Walser is Professor of Radiology at the Mayo Clinic in Florida, USA.
