Author: Vasken Dilsizian (Editor), Jagat Narula (Editor) Full Title: Atlas Of Cardiac Innervation Publisher: Springer - Atlas Of Cardiac Innervation (2017 EN) Year: 2017 ISBN-13: 9783319458007 (978-3-319-45800-7), 9783319457987 (978-3-319-45798-7) ISBN-10: 3319458000, 3319457985 Pages: 183 Language: English Genre: Medicine: Cardiology & Angiology File type: PDF (True) Quality: 10/10 Price: 181.89 € This atlas elucidates the role of the neuronal component in normal cardiovascular function and cardiac disorders and discusses the currently available imaging targets and probes. It provides a foundation in cardiac neuronal imaging and image processing and serves as a guide in the effective utilization of these techniques in clinical and research settings. The atlas discusses the principles of autonomic control in the regulation of cardiac function and disease; chemistry and biology of radiotracers designed to target changes in the myocardial sympathetic and parasympathetic innervation as a function of disease or treatment; neuronal imaging in heart failure and reverse remodeling and the use of PET imaging in quantification of cardiac innervation; cardiac sympathetic innervation in ventricular arrhythmias and device therapy; conditions that affect the autonomic nervous system; and the role of myocardial blood flow and cardiac neuronal imaging in denervation and reinnervation in cardiac transplant recipients. Featuring full-color illustrations, schematic diagrams, and diagnostic algorithms, Atlas of Cardiac Innervation is a valuable resource for cardiologists, radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, and electrophysiologists. ------------- Our members see more.
