Riassunto

T?his book teaches the key knowledge required for the use of ultrasound to guide many catheter based cardiac therapies. While live CME courses are now covering this material there are very few textbooks on this topic. A unique aspect ofthis book is that it has many images to illustrate the teaching points. The use of minimally invasive treatments ofmany cardiac diseases especially by catheter based therapies and devices is arapidly expanding discipline in cardiology and radiology.  Cardiac ultrasound particularlyechocardiography is utilized extensively to guide these therapies. Many echocardiographers are being called uponto guide these therapies but they have not been trained in this unique use ofechocardiography.

Informazioni sull?autore

Michael H.Picard, MD, FACC, FASE, FAHA is the Director of the Echocardiography atMassachusetts General Hospital and Professor of Medicine at Harvard MedicalSchool. He is a Past-President of the American Society of Echocardiography. Hisrecent volunteer service includes membership on the committees that developedthe ACC Appropriateness Criteria for Transthoracic and TransesophagealEchocardiography, the ACC Appropriateness Criteria for Multimodality CardiacImaging in Heart Failure, the revised WHO diagnostic criteria forArrhythmogenic RV Dysplasia and the ASE Quality Standards for LaboratoryOperations. His awards include the Young Investigator Award from the AmericanCollege of Cardiology, the Richard Popp Award for Excellence in Teaching fromthe American Society of Echocardiography, the Inge Edler Lectureship from theAmerican Society of Echocardiography and the Greene Lectureship from VanderbiltUniversity School of Medicine. His research interests include the applicationsof echocardiography in coronary artery disease, translational cardiology andvalvular heart disease. As the director of echocardiography of the MGH hedeveloped the interventional echocardiography service that integrated the useof echocardiography in the catheterization and electrophysiology laboratoriesto assist in many catheter based treatments. This service was among the firstof its kind. Jonathan Passeri, MD is the Director of InterventionalEchocardiography at the Massachusetts General Hospital. His early work helpeddemonstrate the value of 3D transesophageal echocardiography in the catheterbased closure of atrial septal defects. 

Jacob P. Dal-Bianco, MD, FACC, FASE isa cardiologist at the Massachusetts General Hospital with a clinical expertisein heart valve disease and special interest in mitral valve disease. Hisresearch is focused on the mitral valve and his work has been recognized by aCareer Development Award from the American Society of Echocardiography, and byhis selection for Young Investigator Award presentations of the American HeartAssociation and American Society of Echocardiography. He is an expert inadvanced cardiac ultrasound techniques to guide transcatheter repair /replacement of the mitral and aortic valve.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This book presents a practicalapproach for the use of imaging across a wide variety of cardiovascularprocedures. The use of catheter-based therapies is a rapidly expandingdiscipline for the minimally invasive treatment of many cardiac diseases.  Cardiac ultrasound, particularlyechocardiography, is utilized extensively to guide these therapies. 

This text teaches the keyknowledge required for the use of ultrasound in many catheter- based cardiactherapies.  In addition to the newesttechniques such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement and transcathetermitral valve edge-to-edge repair, it also includes guidance on more establishedprocedures such as pericardiocentesis. 

Intraprocedural Imaging of Cardiovascular Interventions is anessential resource for clinicians and interventionalists to aid theirunderstanding of imaging needs during various cardiovascular procedures.
