Regulation of Coronary Blood Flow

by Michitoshi Inoue, Masatsugu Hori, Shoichi Imai, Robert M. Berne

Overview

Research centering on blood flow in the heart continues to hold an important position, especially since a better understanding of the subject may help reduce the incidence of coronary arterial disease and heart attacks. This book summarizes recent advances in the field; it is the product of fruitful cooperation among international scientists who met in Japan in May, 1990 to discuss the regulation of coronary blood flow.
