This medical book is intended to be a beginner’s guide that will provide a mental framework for more advanced topics. Reading this is enough for you to comprehend ECG readings, but you need to know as much as you can so that you can provide the best care.

Study this book and other materials thoroughly. If there is something you do not understand, seek clarification before moving on to something else, to minimize your confusion. The more you understand something, the better you will be able to respond to it – especially during emergencies.

Each chapter includes exercises. The answers to these are found at the end of the book. Answering these will serve as your review for the chapter. Many students are ordering this book as a complement to their ACLS book.

With that being said, let us begin with the basics of ECG – what it is, what it does, and what you need to prepare for it.

Perspectives in Aortic Valve Disease: Clinical and Morphological Characteristics, Diagnosis and Treatments

This medical book describes the different aspects of aortic valve including comprehensive discussion of the state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging options, disease risk stratification, selection of candidates for valve repair or percutaneous intervention, and mostrecent therapeutic options. The growing prevalence of valvular heart disease represents a major challenge in terms of short- and long-term management and surveillance. Aortic valve diseases, including aortic stenosis and regurgitation, are among the mostfrequent of these, while the number of cases of aortic root disease is also on the rise. Aortic valve disease treatment options include valve surgery, valve repair, minimally invasive valve surgery, and percutaneous approaches and all are covered in thisvolume. Perspective in Aortic Valve Disease is a highly illustrated, case oriented reference aimed at cardiology fellows in training, while also helpful to surgeons, cardiologists, imagers, interventionalists, as well as other clinicians and students involved in the diagnosis and treatment of aortic valve and root diseases.

Diagnostic Imaging of Congenital Heart Defects

Defects of the heart and great vessels span a broad spectrum. Modern medical progress has enabled more than 90% of patients to reach adulthood. In many cases, however, patients remain ill throughout their lives, with significant limits on quality of life and physical capacity. Our ongoing goals are to improve treatment options even further.

This book details all important imaging techniques for diagnosing congenital heart defects and assessing their severity. The author is a highly experienced expert in his field, making his clinical experience available to readers who can then implement that knowledge in their own daily routine.

Key Features:

• All key imaging modalities, including 2D and 3D echocardiography, cardiac catheter exams, MRI and MR angiography, CT, and chest X-ray
• Descriptions of general and technical fundamentals, a structure based on clinical pictures, and current standard values
• Crucial information emphasized in callout boxes and tabular overviews
• Supports the professional dialogue between all the involved caretakers
• Richly illustrated with more than 1,000 stunning images from the newest generation of devices

 

Gutberlet’s Diagnostic Imaging of Congenital Heart Defects: Diagnosis and Image-Guided Treatment will be welcomed by pediatric and general radiologists as a comprehensive, multimodality guide to the diagnosis and management of congenital heart defects.
