Summary

No matter how technology advances, the success of solving a patient's cardiovascular problem with interventional techniques depends ultimately on the operator's experience and technical ability. In this text, Dr Thach Nguyen and the editors have encouraged numerous experts in all fields of cardiovascular medicine to distill this experience into a series of practical tips. Contributors describe their areas of expertise, and outline the techniques they have learned or devised for dealing with everyday scenarios and potential complications. This title should continue to be a valuable resource for interventional cardiologists of all levels of experience, allied professionals and trainees wishing to learn more in interventional cardiology. Since new ideas and techniques are constantly appearing, all operators, experienced or otherwise, will benefit from the wisdom of their peers. Book jacket.
