Diagnostic Imaging: Cardiovascular is co-authored by Suhny Abbara, MD, T. Gregory Walker, MD, Perry Ng, MBBS, Steven Imbesi, MD, Anne Roberts, et al. Written by many of the best-known names in cardiac and vascular imaging, this title contains a vast amount of concentrated information about cardiovascular disease entities and numerous high quality state of the art images. Unlike other cardiovascular imaging textbooks, this resource highlights key imaging findings—and examines the appropriate role—of all current imaging modalities, including among many others 64-detector-row and dual-source cardiac CT, cardiac MRI, and advanced CT and MR angiography. The imaging material is superb throughout and the author list includes experts from all aspects of modern cardiac and vascular imaging. Images are clear and convey typical and atypical examples of specific diagnoses, "mimics" and potential pitfalls that may affect diagnostic accuracy.  Today’s preeminent authorities in cardiac and vascular imaging present dependable diagnostic guidance—complimented by high-quality color illustrations—on both the common and less common diagnoses encountered in practice. For each diagnosis, there are concise summaries of terminology, protocol advice, interpretive guidance, imaging findings, key facts, differential diagnosis, pathology, clinical issues, a diagnostic checklist, and selected references.  The book’s user-friendly bulleted format enables users to access all of this information remarkably quickly.
