Synopsis

This book brings together contributions from leading experts to examine the evidence that intravascular flow can influence vascular function. The role of the endothelium is emphasized, as is the involvement of flow-dependent mechanisms in vascular regulation. This process is examined under a variety of normal circumstances as well as their involvement in disease processes, including arteriosclerosis, vasospasm, hypertension, and heart failure.
