This new atlas represents a fresh fresh approach to cardiac anatomy, providing images of unparalleled quality, along with explanatory text, to show in vivo heart anatomy and explain the clinically relevant underlying anatomic concepts. In spite of amazing proliferation of information on the Internet and multiple websites filled with up-to-date information, there is no similarly detailed and systematic compilation of morphological imaging with CT. Organized for both systematic learning and to serve as a quick, yet detailed reference for specific clinical questions, this book is an invaluable resource for medical students and residents, cardiologists, and especially surgeons, interventionalists and electrophysiologists, who depend on ever more detailed imaging support in order to successfully perform increasingly complex coronary and noncoronary structural interventions and other procedures.

Klappentext
This new atlas represents an entirely fresh approach to the study of cardiac anatomy, employing computed tomography images of unparalleled quality to show the heart and aortic root in vivo, with an accuracy that illustrations and other imaging modalities may not match. Accompanying explanatory text, written by leading international experts, guides the reader through what is being shown and explains the clinically relevant underlying anatomic concepts.
Organized for both systematic learning and also to serve as a quick, yet detailed reference for specific clinical questions, this text-atlas is an invaluable resource for medical students, residents and fellows, radiologists, cardiologists, interventionalists, electrophysiologists, and cardiothoracic and vascular surgeons who depend on ever more detailed imaging for superior diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease.
