Coronary Heart Disease: Clinical, Pathological, Imaging, and
Molecular Profiles presents a comprehensive picture of ischemic
heart disease for practitioners, students, and investigators
dealing with the varied facets of this complex subject. Individual
chapters introduce the anatomy of the coronary blood vessels and
cardiac development, while others consider current imaging
modalities utilized for ischemic heart disease, including stress
echo, nuclear diagnostic tests, non-invasive coronary artery
imaging, and coronary angiography. Imaging chapters provide key
clinical information on techniques and indications, and include
examples of both normal and abnormal patterns. The principle thrust
of the book concerns coronary atherosclerosis, the pathology of
which is presented in conjunction with the results of anatomic,
non-invasive imaging and angiographic studies. Related chapters
cover atherogenesis, presenting new insights into the
pathophysiology of the vulnerable plaque, the role of progenitor
cells in vascular injury, inflammation and atherogenesis, and the
genomics of vascular remodeling. Additional topics covered include
angina pectoris, acute coronary syndromes, healed myocardial
infarction and congestive heart failure, catheter-based and
surgical revascularization, and surgical treatment of myocardial
infarction and its sequelae. With contributions from a diverse
group of internationally-known physicians with broad experience in
the diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease, this book
will be a valuable resource for practitioners in clinical
cardiology, thoracic surgery, pathology, and cardiovascular
molecular research, as well as for students in training.
