Synopsis

Cardiac CT and Multimodality Cardiovascular Imaging is an intermediate-to-advanced clinical textbook and atlas for senior students, residents, fellows, cardiologists, radiologists, surgeons, imaging specialists, technologists, and educators seeking a reliable guide to contemporary cardiovascular imaging practice.
The book addresses a persistent gap in training: cardiac CT is often taught as a collection of technical protocols or isolated diagnostic applications, while clinicians must make integrated decisions that connect image acquisition, anatomy, physiology, tissue findings, procedural risk, and patient management. This volume brings those elements into one coherent clinical framework without treating any modality as sufficient for every question.
The text combines concise scientific explanation with atlas-based learning, authentic imaging examples, structured algorithms, measurement guides, reporting templates, procedural checklists, artifact analysis, and multimodality comparisons. Readers progress from scanner principles, patient preparation, acquisition, reconstruction, and systematic interpretation to coronary artery disease, plaque assessment, ischemia evaluation, structural-heart planning, congenital anatomy, cardiomyopathy, pericardial disease, great-vessel disorders, cardiac masses, postprocedural imaging, quality assurance, and responsible use of emerging technologies.
Its discipline-specific strength lies in the close connection between coronary CT angiography, echocardiography, CMR, PET, SPECT, invasive angiography, and catheter-based intervention. Each modality is placed within the clinical question it answers best, allowing readers to distinguish anatomical suitability from physiological significance and technical feasibility from appropriate care.
Adopt this book for advanced cardiovascular imaging education, specialist training, clinical reference, and procedural planning, and place a practical, clinically disciplined imaging resource at the center of your teaching or professional practice.
