Main description:

Fully revised and updated, the Handbook serves as a practical guide to endovascular methods and as a concise reference for neurovascular anatomy and published data about cerebrovascular disease from a neurointerventionalist’s perspective.  Divided into three parts, the book covers:

Fundamentals of neurovascular anatomy and basic angiographic techniques;
Interventional Techniques and endovascular methods, along with useful device information and tips and tricks for daily practice;
Specific Disease States, with essential clinical information about commonly encountered conditions.

New features in the 2nd Edition include:

Global Gems that illuminate aspects of the field outside the United States;
Angio-anatomic and angio-pathologic image correlates;
Newly released clinical study results influencing neurointerventional practice;
Information on emerging technologies in this rapidly advancing field.

The Handbook is a vital resource for all clinicians involved in neurointerventional practice, including radiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, cardiologists, and vascular surgeons.

Feature:

Easy-to-read reference work for useful clinical information about cerebrovascular disorders

Detailed facts and figures

Step-by-step practical guide

Discusses both techniques and basic disease information

How-to descriptions with emphasis on a wide variety of neurointerventional techniques

Comprehensive reviews of all cerebrovascular disorders
