Product Description
CT is an accurate technique for assessing cardiac structure and function, but advances in computing power and scanning technology have resulted in increased popularity. It is useful in evaluating the myocardium, coronary arteries, pulmonary veins, thoracic aorta, pericardium, and cardiac masses; because of this and the speed at which scans can be performed, CT is even more attractive as a cost-effective and integral part of patient evaluation. This book collates all the current knowledge of cardiac CT and presents it in a clinically relevant and practical format appropriate for both cardiologists and radiologists. The images have been supplied by an experienced set of contributing authors and represent the full spectrum of cardiac CT. As increasing numbers have access to cardiac CT scanners, this book provides all the relevant information on this modality. A CD-ROM is included containing a large number of cardiac CT images and videos, providing the reader with a dynamic primer in cardiac CT diagnosis. CD Contents: 1. Orientation to axial images (135 images) 2. Orientation to 3D images (119 images) 3. Coronary artery calcium axial images (2 images) 4. Ejection fraction/short axis (1 video) 5. Circulation time axial images and graph (3 images) 6. CT coronary angiography (8 videos) 7. Left atrial 3D anatomy (8 videos, 1 image) 8. Extracardiac vascular anatomy (4 videos) 9. Cardiac MRI (11 videos) |

Excellent product. by Anoop C. Parameswaran (Philadelphia, PA)  4 Stars
July 22, 2007
This is a great book for those beginning to learn cardiac CT. The physics part is not very extensive, but is clear enough for a non-radiologist (ie cardiology fellow) to follow.

Must have book for CTA by ESP (california, USA)  5 Stars
June 28, 2007
I bought this book because I had heard of Budoff and ended up completing the course offered by Rumberger. The book was thorough yet concise, easy to read yet containing complicated subject matter. My friend bought a different CT book and he ended up reading mine becuase he liked it better. Definately would recommend the book. The book will also help you fly through Level II training.

cardiac ct ABC by Ian - South Africa  3 Stars
March 26, 2007
A reasonably helpful book when learning how to do cardiac ct.
Latter chapters seem a bit out of context (?? written earlier than the first half of the book).

| Cardiac CT Angiography Manual
by Robert Pelberg (Author), Wojciech Mazur (Author)
To date, few, if any, simplified, concise, relatively small and portable books exist to ease the training in the field of cardiac CTA. There are no books written from the point of view of secondary end users who are secondarily trained. Books to date are mainly extensive, large texts that assume a certain basic knowledge. A so called "manual" and reference guide explaining this technique from beginning to end in simple prose will thus be of tremendous value.

MRI has become the preferred noninvasive imaging modality for the heart and great vessels. The substantial technological progress achieved in recent years has provided the user with state-of-the-art MRI systems, but their optimal use can be limited by restricted awareness of the potential patient benefit and the necessity for teaching. This extensively illustrated volume, together with the accompanying CD-ROM, has been specifically compiled to meet these needs. Essential theoretical...
