State of the Art in Quantitative Coronary Arteriography

State of the Art in Quantitative Coronary Arteriography edited by Johan H. C. Reiber, P.W. Serruys.

Over the past twenty years, technical advances in coronary arteriography have contributed to our understanding of the pathophysiologic aspects and natural history of coronary artery disease. Probably more than 700. 000 coronary arterio­ grams are performed annually throughout the world. Usually, the...
