About the Book

The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Imaging is a comprehensive guide to all forms of cardiovascular imaging. A disease based approach is followed and the book is comprised of 8 sections. Section 1 describes the imaging techniques available and Sections 2-8 describe the imaging modalities used to visualise cardiovascular diseases in seven main areas. Each section is subdivided into 2-7 chapters. The book is edited by four European opinion leaders in the fields of echocardiography, nuclear, CMR and CT imaging and has over 50 contributors, mainly from Europe. The printed version is complemented by a basic online version, accessible by means of a password, distributed with the book. The online version allows users to: download chapters for ease of use; provide links from all references to PubMed; allow searching of the text; and download figures and images for non-commercial use in PowerPoint presentations.

Review :
From the reviews: "The book is organized into 8 sections addressing the major cardiovascular disease categories affected by cardiovascular imaging. ... One strength is the clinical images widely included throughout. ... Overall, The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Imaging is a top-notch, authoritative, easily readable, clinically oriented textbook on state-of-the-art cardiovascular imaging. ... Educational institutions, trainees, clinical cardiologists, and practicing cardiovascular imagers would all benefit from having this textbook in their reference library." (Thomas F. Heston, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 304 (19), November, 2010) "'The book is clearly set-out, and the clinical nature of the chapter headings is very useful to those approaching the subject with precisely framed clinical questions. The images are plentiful, clear and with sufficient resolution to illustrate the points being made. ... A clear and comprehensive summary of the field of cardiac imaging. ... ESC endorsement makes this an essential text for trainee cardiologists."' (BMA Medical Book Awards, September, 2011)
