• High-quality, unique illustrations and up-to-date images guide the reader through clinical concepts and technically challenging procedures
• Covers topics that are often overlooked but are critical to understanding the dynamics of endovascular treatment, such as the use of anticoagulants or procoagulants and the biophysics of vascular disease
• Each chapter ends with a Summary which distills and highlights the key takeaways for that topic
