Summary

"The Handbook of Complex Percutaneous Carotid Intervention supplements hands-on training in interventional cardiology with a specific focus on percutaneous intervention in patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis. As both technology and technique continue to improve, the volume of carotid stent procedures performed worldwide has increased dramatically. The authors recognize that interventionalists of the cerebrovasculature must perform stenting of other major cerebral vessels, and thus provide cutting-edge approaches for percutaneous interventions of intracranial stenosis, vertebral artery stenosis, and acute stroke."--BOOK JACKET.
