A contemporary appraisal of this area is essential for all those interested in the pathophysiology and management of diabetic vascular disease.
'Diabetic Angiopathy' reviews these advances in a logical manner, highlighting the interrelationships between the various processes involved. Authoritative sections deal with the impact of the angiopathic process on the organs that are afflicted in a major way. The information contained is both comprehensive and accessible, and represents the most thorough treatise on the scientific understanding of diabetic angiopathy available.
