âThe field of interventional cardiology and interventional vascular medicine now comprises the dominant diagnostic and therapeutic field within cardiovascular medicine, and continues to grow in terms of patients managed and physicians trained. The Textbook of Cardiovascular Intervention is intended to provide...
""Chronic total occlusions continue to represent one of the greatest challenges to interventional cardiologists."" - Cardiovascular Research Foundation - Chronic Total Occlusions or CTOs can be found in 30% of patients with coronary artery disease. Despite advances, CTOs remain one of the most frequently identified lesions...
A compendium for all involved directly or indirectly in decision making about air pollution control-regulatory or engineering.
Fundamentals of Air Pollution is an important and widely used textbook in the environmental science and engineering community. Written shortly after the passage of the seminal Clean Air Act...
A practical, hands-on guide to network troubleshooting that emphasizes diagnostic techniques that many professionals, including engineers, architects, doctors, scientists, attorneys, etc. can really relate to. In today's pervasive network environment, many of these people are often responsible for "fixing the network" if it goes down....
We describe in this book, bio-inspired models and applications of hybrid intelligent
systems using soft computing techniques for image analysis and pattern recognition
based on biometrics and other information sources. Soft Computing (SC)
consists of several intelligent computing paradigms, including fuzzy logic, neural
networks,...
Chest sonography is an established procedure in the stepwise imaging diagnosis of pulmonary and pleural disease. It is the method of choice to distinguish between solid and liquid lesions and allows the investigator to make an unequivocal diagnosis without exposing the patient to costly and stressful procedures. This book presents the state...
This book presents non-linear image enhancement approaches to mammograms as a robust computer-aided analysis solution for the early detection of breast cancer, and provides a compendium of non-linear mammogram enhancement approaches: from the fundamentals to research challenges, practical implementations, validation, and advances in...
Recent years have seen many new developments in computational intelligence (CI) techniques and, consequently, this has led to an exponential increase in the number of applications in a variety of areas, including: engineering, finance, social and biomedical. In particular, CI techniques are increasingly being used in biomedical and human movement...
MRI has become the main paraclinical test in the diagnosis and management of multiple sclerosis. More than 400 pictures of different typical and atypical MS lesions are demonstrated in this atlas. Each image has a teaching point. New diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis are discussed.
