About this book

Interventional cardiac electrophysiology has undergone a rapid development in technique and application in recent years. New 3-dimensional techniques have been proposed for catheter navigation in the heart but, an up-to-date X-ray guide is still indispensable for the correct positioning of catheters in the different cardiac chambers. An Atlas of Radioscopic Catheter Placement presents fundamental knowledge about radiographic anatomy of the heart and some advices to correctly move and rotate the catheters, in a concise and clear manner.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"This is an in-depth pictorial review of fluoroscopic anatomy related to electrophysiological studies, including pacing and radiofrequency catheter ablative procedures. … It will be of interest to practicing cardiologists, elctrophysiologists, and cardiology and electrophysiology fellows in training. This atlas may also be of interest to personnel in cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology laboratories, such as nurses and technicians, who work closely with elctrophysiologists. … All chapters are well organized with numerous images and procedural descriptions." (Anil Verma, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2009)
