About the Book

Textbook of Arterial Stiffness and Pulsatile Hemodynamics in Health and Disease, Two Volume Set covers the principles, physiology, biologic pathways, clinical implications and therapeutics surrounding arterial stiffness and pulsatile hemodynamics, along with a thorough overview of the field. The book presents complex engineering concepts in a way that those in science and medicine can more easily understand. It includes detailed illustrations. Additionally, it presents advanced bioengineering concepts in boxes for readers who wants more in-depth biophysical knowledge. This is a must-have reference for students, researchers and clinicians interested in learning more about this field.

About the Author :
Dr. Julio A. Chirinos, MD, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Director of the Arterial Hemodynamics and Cardiac Imaging Quantification Core Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine. Dr. Chirinos directs an NIH-funded research program focused on the role of arterial stiffness and ventricular arterial interactions in heart disease, mechanisms of human heart failure and the use of proteomics to discern mechanisms of human heart failure. He currently leads clinical studies and trials designed to therapeutically target the arterial tree in order to reduce maladaptive cardiac remodeling, diastolic dysfunction, and to treat patients with Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction, an epidemic condition for which no effective proven pharmacologic therapies are currently available. He also leads various cohort studies with deep cardiovascular phenotyping aimed at characterizing phenotypic profiles in humans. Dr. Chirinos also directs a core analysis laboratory for assessments of cardiac and arterial structure and function with non-invasive imaging, which has served as the core lab for various multicenter studies. His laboratory utilizes a combination of imaging modalities (including arterial tonometry, echocardiography and cardiac MRI) coupled with modeling approaches to characterize arterial physiology and ventricular-arterial interactions in humans. Dr. Chirinos has published >200 papers, chapters, reviews, and editorials and has been an invited speaker in >120 scientific sessions. He has participated in various clinical expert committees for the American Heart Association, American Society of Echocardiography, European Society of Cardiology, American Society of Hypertension, European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging and the Lancet Commission for Hypertension. Dr. Chirinos is currently the Vice-President of the North American Artery society, which promotes the study of arterial function as a determinant of cardiovascular disease. He is an Associate Editor of Circulation Heart Failure and a former Editor of the Cochrane Group (Cochrane Collaboration), Senior Consulting Editor of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology – Cardiovascular Imaging, Associate Editor for the Journal of Clinical Hypertension and member of the editorial board of Pulse and the Journal of Geriatric Cardiology. He is also a Visiting Professor at the University of Ghent in Belgium, where he maintains an active collaboration with the Asklepios Investigators aimed at characterizing arterial aging at the population level.
