Quantitative Coronary Arteriography edited by Johan H. C. Reiber, P.W. Serruys.

In June 1989, a third conference concentrating on the progress in quantita­ tive coronary angiography and related techniques was held in Rotterdam, again very successful as the two preceding events in 1985 and 1987. Tech­ nical as well as clinical aspects of digital and digitized coronarography, mor...
