Cardiac CT Imaging 2/e: Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease

The comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular structure and function with computed tomography (CT) has progressed at
an astounding rate due to advances in scanning technology and image processing. Given the growing importance of
cardiovascular CT, this book collates all relevant imaging findings and presents them in a clinically relevant and
practical manner appropriate for the spectrum of physicians who diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease. The chapters
have been written by an internationally renowned group of contributing authors and present discussion and images which
characterize the full spectrum of cardiovascular CT. In addition, the enclosed DVD provides orientation through 2-
Dimensional and 3-Dimensional image sets.
