Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Invasive Imaging of Atherosclerosis is a primer, reference and review of some of the key features of current activities in the field of atherosclerosis. The Editors' goal is to provide material and stimulating ideas to basic scientists and clinical researchers in order to extend the application of vascular imaging and to further develop methods suitable for investigation of the arterial wall. The first section presents current knowledge about pathology, vascular mechanics and compensatory mechanisms active during atherogenesis. It explores the early lesion, complications of plaques and early detection of plaques. Section II reviews several key methodological issues of B-mode ultrasound imaging and some of the most current data. Quantitative B-mode ultrasound is an established non-invasive tool widely used in large epidemiologic studies and interventional clinical trials of atherosclerosis. The last section addresses the most promising areas of development in vascular imaging. This involves new techniques to evaluate the atherosclerotic bed, to follow atheroma progression/regression and to evaluate vascular mechanics in atherosclerotic arteries. The last chapter places the application of non-invasive imaging in perspective.

Download or read book Ethics Medical Research and Medicine written by Andrew Thompson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-08-31 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing that there is a mythology within modern medical circles that "high-tech treatment and the latest drugs are best treatment, they should be used often... and cost of treatment is not a relevant issue," the contributors note that the third leading cause of death in the United States is unintended consequences of medical treatment and argue for a new paradigm that leans on prevention rather than intervention. They argue that in part, this mythology is driven by a quest for profits from the corporate controllers of the medical industry. In support of their criticism, they examine the effects of this mythology on statin drugs, screening for breast and prostate cancer, genetic diagnosis and therapy, and Swan Ganz catheter, arguing that all of these often cause more harm than they can be demonstrated to prevent.
