Overview

Neurointerventional radiology is evolving into a rarified and complex field, with more people today training to become neurointerventionalists than ever before. With these developments comes a need for a unified handbook of techniques and essential literature. In Handbook of Cerebrovascular Disease and Neurointerventional Technique, Mark Harrigan and John Deveikis present the first practical guide to endovascular methods and provide a viable reference work for neurovascular anatomy and cerebrovascular disease from a neurointerventionalist's perspective. This new gold-standard reference covers the fundamental techniques and core philosophies of Neurointerventional radiology, while creating a manual that offers structure and standardization to the field. Authoritative and concise, Handbook of Cerebrovascular Disease and Neurointerventional Technique is the must-have work for today's neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, and interventional radiologists.

Reviews

From the reviews: The purpose of this book is to demonstrate the most used basic and advanced neurointerventional techniques. Radiologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, cardiologists, and interventional neuroradiologists are the main audiences for this book. ! It is a practical guide to the anatomy as presented. ! The illustrations are well done and the references are up-to-date ! . This is an excellent pocket reference in neuroendovascular surgery. ! It belongs in any fellow's lab coat pocket and in any large academic library. (Celso Agner, Doody's Review Service, July, 2009) The book is intentionally presented in a simplistic form. The major points are presented in bullet statements, containing the critical information that would be required by an interventionalist. ! the figures provided are quite useful and are a useful adjunct to the descriptions given in the text. As a whole, this book is a welcome addition to the literature of Endovascular Surgical Neuroradiology. ! Both residents and fellows early in their training as well as experienced angiographers will find this text valuable as a reference.
