Description
Overview
Intracoronary physiology and its use in interventional cardiology is a focused, in-depth resource that explores the role of physiological assessment in guiding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Guest editor Dr. Allen Jeremias lends his expertise to provide a comprehensive review on how intracoronary physiology is applied in clinical practice, especially for angiographically borderline stenoses.
This issue contains contributions from top experts who present current evidence supporting the routine use of intracoronary physiological measurements to improve patient outcomes. It synthesizes the latest research, practice guidelines, and clinical applications, making it an essential guide for cardiologists and interventionalists seeking to stay current in this rapidly evolving field.
Key Topics Covered
- Updates in coronary physiology including analysis of recent negative trials
- Physiology for post-PCI assessment
- Co-registration of physiology with intravascular imaging
- CT-derived physiological assessment techniques
- Targeted therapies for microvascular disease
- Clinical application of intracoronary physiological measurements
- Current controversies and future directions in interventional cardiology physiology
The book presents 13 practice-oriented topics, integrating research and clinical insights to offer actionable knowledge for improving interventional outcomes.
Each chapter is carefully curated to provide expert clinical reviews that highlight advancements and practical applications of intracoronary physiological assessment in contemporary cardiology.
