"This second volume provides excellent, in-depth information on state-of-the-art techniques and emerging innovations in various cardiovascular procedures such as coronary angioplasty, stenting and bioabsorbable scaffolds, atherectomy, mechanical thrombectomy, treatment of chronic total occlusions, left atrial appendage closure, and embolic protection devices. The quality and content of this book is exceptional. The book is ideal for physicians and researchers in the advanced stages of cardiovascular training." --Doody Reviews
