Provides comprehensive coverage of current approaches to diagnosing and managing atherosclerosis and its coronary and noncoronary complications. Additionally, the book includes fundamental basic science issues, and emphasizes the pathogenetic and pathophysiologic processes affecting atherosclerosis, its risk factors, and its potential sequelae. Major sections examine such common complications of atherosclerosis as acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and chronic stable angina. Coverage includes typical and atypical clinical presentations, current invasive and noninvasive diagnostic modalities, and analyses of the indications, risks, and benefits of specific medical, pharmacologic, and surgical interventions. The final section examines noncoronary manifestations of atherosclerosis, including cerebrovascular disease, diseases of the aorta, and peripheral arterial disease.
