Part of the Braunwald family of renowned cardiology references, this updated volume integrates a contemporary understanding of vascular biology with a thorough review of clinical vascular diseases, making it an ideal reference for vascular medicine specialists, general cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, vascular surgeons, and interventional radiologists. Incorporates technologic advances in vascular imaging - including ultrasound, MRI, CTA, and catheter-based angiography - along with more than 230 new figures, providing an up-to-date and complete view of the vascular system and vascular diseases. Covers novel antithrombotic therapies for peripheral artery disease and venous thromboemboism, advances in endovascular interventions for aortic aneurysms, and today's best surgical treatments for vascular diseases. Includes seven new chapters: Pathobiology of Aortic Aneurysms; Pathobiology and Assessment of Cardiovascular Fibrosis; Large Vessel Vasculitis; Medium and Small Vessel Vasculitis; Epidemiology and Prognosis of Venous Thromboembolic Disease; Fibromuscular Dysplasia; and Dermatologic Manifestations of Vascular Disease. Discusses methods for aggressive patient management and disease prevention to ensure minimal risk of further cardiovascular problems. Keeps you current with ACC/AHA and ECC guidelines and the best ways to implement them in clinical practice. Enhanced eBook version included with purchase, which allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices UR - https://go.openathens.net/redirector/nhs?url=https://www.clinicalkey.com/dura/browse/bookChapter/3-s2.0-C20160049501 ER -
