DESCRIPTION
Cardiovascular Pathology, Fourth Edition, provides users with a comprehensiveoverview that encompasses its examination, cardiac structure, both normal and physiologically altered, and a multitude of abnormalities.This updated edition offerscurrent views on interventions, both medical and surgical, and the pathologyrelated to them.
Congenital heart disease and itspathobiology are covered insome depth, as are vasculitis and neoplasias. Each section has been revised toreflect new discoveries in clinical and molecular pathology, with new chaptersupdated and written with a practical approach, especially with regards to thediscussion of pathophysiology. New chapters reflect recent technological advances with cardiacdevices, transplants, genetics, and immunology.Each chapter is highly illustratedand covers contemporary aspects of thedisease processes, including a section on the role ofmolecular diagnostics and cytogenetics as specifically related to cardiovascular pathology.
Key Features
- Serves as a contemporary, all-inclusive guide to cardiovascular pathology for cliniciansand researchers, as well as clinical residents and fellowsof pathology, cardiology, cardiac surgery, and internalmedicine
- Offers new organization of each chapterto enable uniformity for learning and reference:Definition, Epidemiology,Clinical Presentation, Pathogenesis/Genetics, Light and Electron Microscopy/Immunohistochemistry, DifferentialDiagnosis, Treatment and Potential Complications
- Features six new chaptersand expanded coverage of thenormal heart and blood vessels, cardiovascular devices, congenital heart disease, tropical and infectious cardiac disease, and forensic pathologyof the cardiovascular system
- Contains 400+ fullcolor illustrations and an online image collection facilitate research, study, and lecture slide creation
