Description
The book addresses the meaning of the systolic function and diastolic function, how these can best be measured and interpreted, both now and in the future. It also covers topics such as: cardiac mechanics, flow dynamics, vascular properties, neural control of cardiovascular systems and pharmacological interventions. The book is of particular interest to biophysicists, bioengineers, cardiovascular physiologists, and clinicians.
