From the reviews of the second edition:
„This update of a comprehensive book on modern vascular laboratory diagnostic techniques has 14 new chapters … . The intended audience is physicians interested in using the vascular laboratory to guide clinical decisions. The book contains several technical tips and a chapter on ultrasound physics more useful to vascular technicians and physician directors of vascular laboratories. Each major section also has an introductory chapter which is more directed at students, residents, or nurse practitioners.“ (Gale Lynn Tang, Doody’s Review Services, February, 2009)
The book provides the newest definitive text on the current techniques used in assessing vascular disorders. Readers will receive authoritative information and will be guided through the establishment and accreditation of a vascular laboratory and introduced to the physics of diagnostic testing. The chapters comprehensively explain the use of ultrasound in diagnosing cerebrovascular, renovascular, visceral ischemia and peripheral arterial disease, as well as venous disorders and deep abdominal vascular conditions. The book contains over 300 illustrations, many of them in color. The book will be invaluable to physicians who treat vascular disorders, surgeons, cardiologists, vascular radiologists and the vascular laboratory staff.
