"Abela (cardiology, Michigan State University) provides guidelines for recognizing and treating all types of peripheral vascular disease (PVD), combining a multidisciplinary perspective with information on the latest developments. Early chapters cover anatomy, etiology, and symptoms, and later chapters detail treatment with drugs, exercise, and anticoagulants. Diagnostic chapters describe various methods for testing and imaging, and surgical chapters outline pre-and post- operative management and look at stent grafts for various conditions. Final chapters describe technical training requirements for practice and credentialing, and address billing and coding issues. B&w medical images and surgical photos are included.

This issue serves as a high-level topic review and keeps the readers updated on current and future neurointervention directions.

A handy reference source for scientists, students and physicians needing reliable, up-to-date information on basic mechanisms, physiology, pathophysiology, and medical issues related to brain vasculature. The books consists of short, specific chapters written by international experts on cerebral vasculature, and presents the information in a comprehensive and easily accessible manner.

“Brain circulation is a true road map that consists of large extended navigation territories and a number of unimagined and undiscovered routes.” Dr. Patricia Bozzetto Ambrosi This book combines an update on the review of cerebrovascular diseases in the form of textbook chapters, which has been carefully reviewed by Dr. Patricia Bozzetto Ambrosi, Drs. Rufai Ahmad and Auwal Abdullahi and Dr. Amit Agrawal, high-performance academic editors with extensive experience in neurodisciplines, including neurology, neurosurgery, neuroscience, and neuroradiology, covering the best standards of neurological practice involving basic and clinical aspects of cerebrovascular diseases. Each topic was carefully revised and prepared using smooth, structured vocabulary, plus superb graphics and scientific illustrations. In emphasizing the most common aspects of cerebrovascular diseases: stroke burden, pathophysiology, hemodynamics, diagnosis, management, repair, and healing, the book is comprehensive but concise and should become the standard reference guide for this neurological approach.

This book will cover recent advances in genetics and molecular biology of cerebrovascular diseases, including ischemic stroke, brain arteriovenous malformation, brain aneurysms, and cavernous malformation. Developments in diagnostics, imaging and treatment will also be discussed.Much progress has been made in recent years in these fields, but not been summarized in one comprehensive text. This volume fills the gap in the literature by compiling them in one convenient, handy volume for neuroscience researchers and medical professionals.

At last, years of clinical experience and the latest clinical evidence comes together in one comprehensive collection by world-renown experts at the Baylor College of Medicine. A complete and focused examination of all aspects of endovascular therapy of aortic disease, Advanced Endovascular Therapy provides you with all of the information you need on: Natural history and preoperative planning Thoracic aortic aneurysm Aortic dissection and traumatic aortic injury Techniques, new devices, and surveillance With 26 chapters skilfully organized into four main sections, this book helps you obtain the best results when using endovascular treatments for patients with aortic disease. Keep Advanced Endovascular Therapy close at hand for frequent reference.

Provides a highly illustrated technical overview of endovascular procedures. Each chapter contains an overview of a specific area, supplemented by tables, line diagrams, and angiograms.

In July 2008, European and Japanese specialists in neurosurgery, neurology, interventional neuroradiology and neurointensive care joined together to discuss the latest developments in the management of cerebrovascular disorders at the 4th European Japanese Joint Conference on Stroke Surgery, held in Helsinki, Finland. This collection of papers from the meeting deal with aneurysm surgery and management of subarachnoid hemorrhage and stroke, arterial dissection, intracranial arteriovenous malformations and fistulas, and microneurosurgical bypass and revascularization techniques.
