About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book provides both background information as well as an up-to-date review of advances in evaluation of the complex structure that is the mitral valve. … It is intended for echocardiography specialists as well as clinical cardiologists. … The book is most appropriate for imaging specialists, but the pathophysiology and anatomical sections would certainly appeal to both intended audiences. … This book does a fantastic job of covering the most important aspects of echocardiographic mitral valve evaluation.” (Evan S. Jacobs, Doody's Book Reviews, January, 2014)Authors and Affiliations
