Description
Angioscopy, the state-of-the-art imaging technique for the 3-D colour visualization of the interior of the blood vessel, has now become routine practice in the modern management of occlusive vascular disease. Inclusive, and clinically useful, this procedure- and technique-oriented atlas uses a combination of line drawings and colour photographs to guide the surgeon through the procedure, discusses how to detect the exact size and location of a lesion or occlusion in the peripheral, visceral, or coronary artery, and explains what results can be expected.
