Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)
978-1-4051-2210-8 (ISBN)
Finally, there is a dependable guide to transmyocardial laser revasculariztion (TMR). In this groundbreaking volume, clinicians who pioneered the use of this innovative treatment share their insights on the indications, results, mechanisms, and limitations of the technique.
Under the careful editorial guidance of Drs. Bridges, Horvath, and Chiu, contributing authors explain:
the evolution, science, rationale, and limitations for TMR
how to select suitable candidates
anesthetic considerations and the role of transesophageal echo
TMR as a sole or combination therapy
Whether you are already practicing TMR or contemplating its addition to your therapeutic armamentarium, this concise reference will answer all your questions about this important new procedure.
