Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) is now recognized as an important adjunct to conventional angiography and is increasingly used to image atherosclerotic disease process in clinical research. The growing use of this technology has created a need for a resource that combines technical details with illustrative material. An Atlas and Manual of Coronary Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging provides, in a single volume, a practical reference manual that describes the application of the technique, and a superbly illustrated atlas that graphically demonstrates the capabilities of this rapidly evolving technology. Section One, the Manual, describes the rationale, technique, and interpretation of IVUS imaging for standard and evolving applications. It covers normal arterial anatomy, plaque morphology and imaging artifacts, together with measurement techniques and volumetric analysis, and the use of IVUS as a guide for interventional procedures such as atheroplasty, atherectomy, and stenting. In addition, emerging topics including plaque vulnerability and serial surveillance of plaque progression and regression are extensively described. Section Two, the Atlas, reviews these topics with reference to a series of carefully selected clinical cases, which allows the reader to further improve the capability to correctly interpret images obtained using this technique. Developed with the resources of one of the world's leading centers for IVUS imaging, the book systematically introduces coronary imaging with IVUS. A comprehensive reference, An Atlas and Manual of Coronary Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging presents an accessible introduction for the beginner and an invaluable reference for the more experienced practitioner.
