This practical resource shows the clinician how to handle and use the tools, devices, and implants required for endovascular interventions. A firm foundation in understanding the purpose, technical parameters, and function of each tool is required by vascular surgeons, interventional cardiologists, interventional radiologists, and other vascular specialists. Medical students, trainees, and physicians starting in practice will enhance their endovascular knowledge, which will allow for improved and seamless patient care. Even the experienced practitioner may find new tips in this book!
