Beschreibung

This compact educational book provides a succinct review of the use of CT to investigate heart disease for those taking their Cardiac CT Boards. CT is an increasingly used imaging modality in cardiology with increasing numbers of patients undergoing the modality to diagnose coronary artery disease, and more practitioners (cardiologists, radiologists, and physicians-in-training, including cardiology and advanced imaging fellows) taking the Cardiac CT Board exam.

Learning Cardiac CT: A Board Review provides a structured didactic review book targeting the Cardiac CT board exam. As such it will be of vital use to anyone taking their Cardiac CT Boards or looking for a practical and compact review of the use of CT in investigating cardiac disease.
