About this title

Review

“The book is mainly addressed to electrophysiologists, but is certainly useful also for students, general  cardiologists or other clinical specialists. It can be interesting also for physicists, nurses and biomedical engineers. We suggest this publication to nuclear physicians and residents interested in nuclear cardiology regarding growing interest connected with old and new radionuclide procedures, including receptor imaging, in diagnosing and evaluating patients with cardiac diseases affecting rhythm and in assessing conduction of the signal.”  ( Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging , 1 December 2012) "This book is essential in providing up–to–date and concise information for physicians who want the knowledge and skills to manage patients." ( Doody′s , November 2008)
