Reviews

“This manual provides a logical and comprehensible summary of cardiac computed tomography. … It is a great resource for house officers rotating on a cardiac CT rotation, practicing clinicians looking for a condensed and concise review of the latest applications of cardiac CT, or as a companion reference in a CCTA laboratory. … This is an exceptionally well-written, lucid, and condensed review of cardiac computed tomography. Easy-to-ready text and simple diagrams enable readers to quickly and efficiently learn cardiac CT.” (Conrad Jablonski, Doody's Book Reviews, September, 2015)
