Descripción

Make the most of today's innovative medical therapies, advances in vascular imaging, and new drugs to improve your patients' cardiovascular health with Vascular Medicine, 2nd Edition. This comprehensive, clinically focused volume in the Braunwald's Heart Disease family provides an in-depth, state-of-the-art review of all vascular diseases, with an emphasis on pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management - giving you the evidence-based guidance you need to make appropriate therapeutic decisions on behalf of your patients.

Puntos claves

  • Gain a state-of-the-art understanding of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management
  • of arterial disease, venous disease, lymph dysfunction, connective tissue disease, vascular disease, and vascular manifestations of systemic disease.
  • Benefit from the knowledge and experience of Dr. Mark A. Creager (editor of the Vascular Medicine society journal), Dr. Joshua A. Beckman, and Dr. Joseph Loscalzo, and benefit from their practice rationales for all of today’s clinical therapies.
  • Easily reference Braunwald’s Heart Disease, 9th Edition for further information on topics of interest.

Reseñas

"Although written by a collection of cardiovascular experts who span multiple specialties in radiology, cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, and medicine, this book primarily focuses on biological principles and medical management of these diseases, not on the technical aspects of vascular intervention. It is a superb addition to the current vascular medicine literature."- Dustin Yoon, MD, MS (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine) Doody Review Services
