Book Description
The increasing success of new intervention methods has created a strong demand for imaging techniques able to visualize the coronary anatomy and to assess its physiologic significance. This book debates various questions on intracoronary echocardiography in its first part, moving on through the contributions of ultrasounds in the pathophysiology and therapy of heart failure, non-invasive identification of the zones of myocardium in which reperfusion has successfully re-established an anterograde flow through the infarct-related coronary vessel and the results of a European Consensus on standards and guidelines for the study of regional and global left ventricular function. The final part of this book deals with the state of the art and the future perspectives of myocardial contrast echocardiography compared with other invasive techniques in the assessment of coronary flow reserve.

Molecular Physiology and Pharmacology of Cardiac Ion Channels and Transporters
Author: M. Morad
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401139903
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
Knowledge of cardiac ion channels and transporters has advanced remarkably in the last two decades with the development of patch-clamp and molecular biological techniques. This textbook offers a comprehensive overview of structures and functions of ion channels and transporters in the heart. Readers are first introduced to the molecular biology and electrophysiology of all the important ion channels. After discussing their developmental changes, the pharmacology and pathophysiology of clinically-relevant ion channels are reviewed. Molecular aspects of the cardiac excitation-contraction coupling and intracellular Ca2+ regulation by ion transporters are also described. The book will be useful to electrophysiologists, cardiac physiologists and pharmacologists, and molecular biologists interested in ion channels at all levels. For research specialists, the book will provide a perspective of the field. The book can be used as a reference source for working scientists in the fields of ion channels, biophysics, cardiac electrophysiology, and pharmacology. It is aimed at graduate and medical students, designed for use as a textbook for graduate and medical courses.

Intracardiac Echocardiography
Author: Frank E. Silvestry
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000144488
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
Intracardiac Echocardiography is the first echocardiographic textbook of its kind to specifically cover ICE. Discussing all aspects of intracardiac ultrasound, it allows readers to perfect ICE image acquisition and helps to guide interpretation of this information during interventional and electrophysiologic procedures. Unique and informative, the text explores: introductory echo physics currently available intracardiac ultrasound systems basic image acquisition the role of ICE in both the interventional and electrophysiology laboratory, as well as in the diagnostic setting. Featuring expert commentary by leaders in the field, the book also includes high quality echocardiographic images illustrating how ICE is used in a wide variety of procedures such as transseptal catheterization, PFO and ASD closure, atrial fibrillation ablation procedures, and many others.

Current Trends in Digestive Ultrasonography
Author: Lionello Gandolfi
Publisher: Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 3805563744
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 405
Book Description
The introduction of ultrasound has radically altered the clinical approach to patients with digestive diseases as it is now possible to observe the abdominal organs rapidly and noninvasively. This publication thoroughly covers the main applications of ultrasound in gastroenterology, with particular reference to the most recent progress in the field. The articles, contributed by leading international experts, are organized into three sections. The first section of the book focuses on the applications of transabdominal and intraoperative ultrasound in the diagnosis of diseases of the liver and pancreas. A further section deals with interventional ultrasound where the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma by alcoholization or laser is one of the topics of interest. Recent applications of ultrasound are discussed in the final section: the study of the abdominal vessels with duplex and color Doppler receives extensive coverage and other contributions consider new developments in endoscopic ultrasound and contrast agents. Attention is also given to the use of ultrasound in patients with HIV and AIDS. Given ultrasound's importance today, this book is essential reading for radiologists, gastroenterologists, internists and surgeons.
