Full Description
This book provides a detailed practically applicable guide to using the latest endovascular techniques. Chapters feature detailed step-by-step instructions on how to perform procedures relevant for instances of disorders including cerebrovascular disease, splachnic arteries, and aortic aneurysms. Multiple choice questions are provided throughout to enable the reader to identify the points covered.
Mastering Endovascular Techniques: Tips and Tricks in Endovascular Surgery describes the latest endovascular methodologies and features detailed insight on how to apply these techniques into day-to-day clinical practice.
