Download or read book Vascular Disease Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches written by Michael R. Jaff, DO and published by Cardiotext Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patients with vascular disease offer great challenges to physicians of multiple backgrounds. The rapid improvement in multimodal imaging and the growth of endovascular strategies for treatment of peripheral vascular disease have resulted in an explosion in interest in these patients. But patients and physicians often misdiagnose vascular disease as normal signs of aging, resulting in presentation to specialists at the end stage of the disease process. This textbook, edited by two recognized experts in the field, is designed to offer unique and comprehensive information on the diagnostic approach to and state-of-the-art treatment of arterial and venous diseases. This multispecialty textbook will be a critical addition to the practicing clinician's library. "This is a well-conceived and well-executed text dealing with the full gamut of peripheral vascular diseases, their diagnosis, and treatment... While other texts are similar with respect to content and intended audience, Vascular Disease is unique at least in its organization of the subject matter. By uniting pathophysiology, risk factors, diagnosis, and medical and surgical treatment of each anatomic distribution in one chapter of section, the editors have provided a facile reference. A particular chapter will inform the physician's or nurse's care of an individual patient, without that medical profession having to skip around - using the index - to garner or refresh their expertise in, say, the 'contemporary management of superior vena cava syndrome.'" - Benjamin M. Jackson, MD (Ann Thorac Surg 2011;92:1555)
