The Complete Guide to Cardiac CT 1st Edition

I have some books about Cardiac MRI and CT.This one is by far the one I prefer to use in my routine. It is concise yet complete.The text clear and the author managed to address most of the problems you may face with your cases in one volume.Dr. Abramson mixes his own experience with the main articles published in the medical literature over the last years delivering a text that is easy to read and straightforward.A must have for the radiologist dedicated to cadiac ct.

This well-organized and clearly written book, provides three major functions: A)information on how to perform cardiac CT and coronary CT angiography, B) detailed knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and disease conditions, and C) extensive coverage of the field so it functions also as a reference book. Abramson has amassed experts in a variety of cardiac fields and unified their chapters into a cohesive volume covering the basics to the future challenges. The book contains extensive CT images as well as numerous illustrations and drawings that clearly demonstrate the concepts and information from cardiac and coronary CT. It is an outstanding book to have as part of one's imaging library.

I have a few text books in this topic and I have read a number of articles and I think this book is by far the best reference. Even though it was published in 2011, it explains in detail the technical aspects (even dual source), better than books published more recently. It has protocols according to the manufacturer which is a big plus. I highly recommend this book for both daily practice and for board exam.

This is an outstanding book. It really covers all the topics being literally a complete guide. It is complete, concise, objective. It gives us a whole view in a didactic non tiring way. Its easy reading texts are idealy matched with the great number of ilustrations.Congratulations!

Excellent, comprehensive, extremely well written and clearly presented. Figures are clear and compliment the text nicely. Well organized chapters. Would definitely highly recommend as a general textbook of cardiac CT, especially for those preparing for the CT board examination.

I am a radiologist with no prior training in cardiac CT. After reading this book, I feel like I've received a good foundation to build on. Very well written and with lots of good images.

This is a very good and comprehensive book on cardiac CTA. I am a radiologist with 4 years experience in reading cardiac CTA and I highly recommend this book. This book puts nicely together what you need to know about the subject and what has been published on journals as well as what you learn on courses (both cardiology and radiology).

I am a CT technologist who currently works in a hospital that has a very prominent heart health program. This guide is filled with tools to help the CT technologist use dose reduction techniques and still achieve amazing cardiac CT scans. Dr. Abramson's chapter on artifacts, pitfalls and most importantly- remedies, is essential for every CT tech. Cardiac CT textbooks are of few and not nearly as practical as this manual. This guide has become the most referred to cardiac book in our CT department. Highly reccomended for cardiac physicians, CT techologist and cardic radiology nurses.
