[amazon template=image&asin=1627034897]

“The purpose is to present established and emerging principles in hypertension evaluation and management in the young as well as analyses of approaches in current pediatric hypertension research. … It is written for pediatricians, adult and pediatric cardiovascular disease specialists, and investigators in cardiovascular research, as well as nonpractitioners with a vested interest in pediatric hypertension research and treatment. … It enables them to build a more than adequate fundamental knowledge base in practical and research concepts in this growing patient population.” (Shawn Ragbir, Doody’s Book Reviews, December, 2013)

From the Back Cover

The field of pediatric hypertension has undergone important changes in the time since the second edition of Pediatric Hypertension published. Much new information on hypertension in the young has become available. Previous chapters have been fully revised and new chapters have been added to cover important topics of recent interest such as consensus recommendations, the prevalence of hypertension in the young due to the obesity epidemic, studies of antihypertensive agents, and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Pediatric Hypertension, Third Edition is a comprehensive volume featuring 38 chapters covering the breadth of the current knowledge. It is divided into four sections: Regulation of Blood Pressure in Children; Assessment of Blood Pressure in Children: Measurement, Normative Data, Epidemiology; and Hypertension in Children: Predictors, Risk Factors, and Special Populations; Evaluation and Management of Pediatric Hypertension.

Conventional Nuclear Medicine in Pediatrics: A Clinical Case-Based Atlas 1st ed.

November 5, 2017

[amazon template=image&asin=331943179X]

This superbly illustrated book combines the systematic approach of a textbook with the simplicity of consultation of an atlas in order to provide a comprehensive guide to the applications and benefits of scintigraphic studies in children. All of the clinical scenarios in which conventional nuclear medicine techniques frequently play a role in children are covered, with explanation of imaging diagnosis, the relevance of clinical history, problem solving, and pitfalls. The images themselves are the key focus of the book, and in each setting the added value offered by scintigraphy is carefully identified. The book also describes management of the pediatric patient and addresses general considerations, including reception, interaction with parents, radiopharmaceutical administration, image acquisition, radiation exposure, and the relationship of nuclear medicine and radiology. Since the child is not a young adult, it is insufficient simply to adapt nuclear medicine procedures performed in adults to the age and size of the child. Conventional Nuclear Medicine in Pediatrics will be a rich source of information for all who perform these procedures in the pediatric setting.
