Written by a team of distinguished contributors involved in training programs, this new book offers a thorough and complete overview of the most important aspects of vascular and interventional radiology for residents and fellows. You'll get all anatomic, procedural, and clinical information, including proper techniques, outcomes, and complication avoidance. Hundreds of line drawings, tables, radiographs, and CT scans illustrate key points and clarify difficult concepts.

The book begins with an introduction to general procedures and imaging, and then provides an analysis of the most effective diagnosis and management strategies. Dozens of case studies, including pulmonary and bronchial circulation, venous diseases, liver and spleen disorders, angiography, and more, clarify all concepts.

Key features:

• Nearly 600 high-quality drawings and radiographs-more than one per page!
• Valuable information on detecting and avoiding complications, from procedural and long term problems to infections
• Succinct enough to be read in a one- or two-month resident rotation
• References are limited to only relevant, state-of-the-art listings

Here is an invaluable guide and study tool for residents and fellows, as well as for experienced radiologists using it as a daily reference.
