9781405175722: Cardiac Mapping

Synopsis

Dr. Shenasa and his internationally renowned team of editors and contributors reflect all the breakthroughs that have been made in interventional electrophysiology and imaging technologies in recent years in this thoroughly updated guide to cardiac mapping. This third edition focuses on new developments in the field, such as mapping of complex arrhythmias, stereotaxis, and image integration. This useful resource for basic and clinical electrophysiologists illuminates the path to better and safer mapping. A unique feature of this edition is the inclusion of a DVD, which illustrates real–time data from actual cases.

From the Back Cover

Since the publication of the second edition of Cardiac Mapping, substantial achievements and breakthroughs have been made in the field of interventional electrophysiology and imaging technologies. Today mapping technology is no longer an investigational research tool, rather an essential part of the clinical electrophysiology laboratory. Mapping of complex arrhythmias such as atrial and ventricular fibrillation is emerging as a new era in the management of these arrhythmias.


This thoroughly updated third edition focuses on new developments in the field such as mapping of complex arrhythmias, navigation systems, and image integration, with information on the strengths and limitations of each mapping technology. New to this edition is the inclusion of a DVD illustrating real time data from actual cases. Cardiac Mapping remains an integral part of the science and practice of complex rhythm management, and a central resource for the interventional electrophysiologist, rhythmologist and all those interested in understanding the mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias.
