Peripheral Vascular Interventions

This comprehensive clinical reference describes the full range of endovascular interventions currently used for peripheral vascular problems. The first section provides essential information on peripheral vascular diseases, including etiology, clinical and laboratory evaluation, and imaging before performing a procedure. The second section explains the physics, techniques, and clinical uses of all vascular imaging modalities. The major portion of the book covers specific arterial and venous interventions for each anatomic region. These chapters address clinical issues, indications, patient selection, procedural and technical considerations, results, and post-procedural management, and discuss available devices and pharmaceuticals. More than 1,100 illustrations complement the text.
