These alternative routes of  blood supply are potentially able to alter the course of vascular  disease. Collateral development is a time consuming process, and  arterial stenosis and occlusion often progress faster than growth of  the alternative routes. \u003cbr\u003e  The authors' ultimate goal is to provide a better understanding of  collateral growth in order to pave the way for improving the  conditions for these potentially selfhealing processes. These were  programmed by nature but have not been perfected, probably because  defenses against arterial disease had not been put under the pressure  of natural selection. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461363514\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-3092-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 406\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398791884940,"sku":"9781461363514","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461363514.jpg?v=1755444213","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781461363514","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
