The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine contains the knowledge that every general cardiologist should strive to attain and keep current.
The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine covers the entire field of cardiovascular medicine and unlike other texts the first six chapters are dedicated to diagnostic imaging.
Imaging modalities are also discussed within the subsequent chapters on different disorders and diseases and referenced back to the first chapters.
There are over 700 full colour images and over 230 informative tables. All of the illustrations have been re-drawn to ensure consistency of style and quality.
