The second edition, reflecting the explosive growth of interest in  echo-enhancement, contains 44. The first section deals with some of  the most important emerging issues and technologies and covers  harmonic imaging, the use of echo-enhancers to provide quantitative  information, and the application of enhanced power Doppler to tissue  imaging. The second, on contrast echocardiography, explores the use of  echo-enhancement during transesophageal imaging. One chapter describes  the use of contrast-enhancement transesophageal imaging to determine  coronary flow reserve and another gives a detailed account of the  application of the technique to the evaluation of left ventricular  function. Other authors describe the intraoperative use of contrast  echocardiography and discuss the potential of myocardial contrast  echocardiography to replace thallium scintigraphy. Another chapter  covers the emerging technique of transient response imaging and its  role in the assessment of myocardial perfusion, and two chapters are  devoted to three-dimensional contrast echocardiographic assessment of  myocardial perfusion. Use of echo-enhancement in the evaluation of  peripheral circulation is discussed in chapters on carotid and  peripheral arterial flow imaging and others that describe renal and  hepatic vascular imaging. The newer applications of echo-enhancement  outside the cardiovascular system are described in three chapters  devoted to the visualization of tumour vasculature. The final chapters  look to the future and cover the imaging of intramyocardial  vasculature, the development of site-specific agents and the emergence  of the new acoustically active agents.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789401064057\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401064057\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-5704-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 698\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44352419758220,"sku":"9789401064057","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401064057.jpg?v=1755114357","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789401064057","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
