Doody's Review Service

"Coronary Stenting' guides you through everything in percutaneous intervention that you need to know. The anatomy and physiology of the human heart and the complex structure of the stent; their interaction to possible complications. Chapters have data that is evidence-based and the reader is provided with pictures and diagrams that supplement all the statements." Reviewed by Perfusion, Apr 2015
