具体描述

Intracoronary stenting has emerged as the most powerful tool in interventional catheter-based therapy since the introduction of balloon angioplasty in 1977. Despite the many successes of stent placement, problems exist with restenosis, stent expansion and placement Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) helps to overcome some of these problems IVUS can further reduce acute and subacute complications; reduce restenosis rates; and, improve the cost:benefit ratio of stent procedures, especially in lesions where a multidevice approach is used. Long recognized as the international leader in coronary stenting, Colombo and Tobis have distilled years of practical experience into this book: they describe how to overcome the hurdles of difficult anatomy and lesions.
