Infos

This atlas comprehensively describes the application of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in real-world scenarios using 192 illustrative clinical cases. These imaging techniques are revolutionizing the diagnostic and therapeutic approach for cardiovascular patients and are progressively becoming viable sub-specialties among radiologists and cardiologists.

Clinical Atlas of Cardiac and Aortic CT and MRI features clinically relevant case-based examples of how CT and MR imaging techniques can be applied to identify the pathological features of a range of acquired and congenital heart diseases. Using more than 1000 high-quality figures of distinctive CT and MR imaging features of most cardiovascular diseases, both acquired and congenital, it therefore provides a valuable resource for both specialist and non-specialist radiology/cardiology practitioners seeking to develop a deep understanding of how to recognize the features of a variety of heart diseases using CT and MR imaging techniques.

Dr. Patricia Carrascosa (MD, PhD, FSCCT) is the chair of the CT and MRI and Research Departments of Diagnóstico Maipú, one of the largest private imaging centers in Argentina, affiliated to the University of Buenos Aires. She is the Director of the residence program, whilst also being an Assistant Professor at the University of Buenos Aires. 

Dr Carrascosa is Fellow of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (FSCCT) and Co-Director of the Latin-American Committee of the SCCT. She has authored over 100 manuscripts, 120 abstracts and 5 books: the books including 'Virtual Hysterosalpingography' and 'Dual-Energy CT in Cardiovascular Imaging'. She has also authored chapters in books such as 'CT and MRI of the Whole Body' by John Haaga; 'Noninvasive Cardiovascular Imaging' by Mario J. García, and 'Ultrasound Imaging Reproductive Medicine' by Laurel A. Stadtmauer. She serves as a reviewer for many national and international journals such as JACC Imaging, Heart, Journal of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, and American Journal of Cardiology.

Dr. Carlos Capuñay (MD) is currently Head of Computed Tomography and Sub-Head of the Research Department at Diagnóstico Maipú in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He has focused his main clinical activities on the thoracic and cardiovascular field in CT and on vascular MRI. He is boarded in Cardiovascular Computed Tomography.

Dr. Capuñay has written and published over 60 manuscripts, 80 abstracts and 3 books, including 'Virtual Hysterosalpingography'. He is also author of national and international books chapters about cardiovascular CT and other subjects.

Dr. Alejandro Darío Deviggiano (MD) is the Coordinator of the non-Invasive Cardiovascular Imaging Department of Diagnóstico Maipu, and a professor at Buenos Aires University. Dr. Deviggiano was the former Director of the Clinical and Therapeutic Cardiology Council and the Cardiac CT and MRI Council of the Argentinian Society of Cardiology. He is curr

ently a member of the Education/CME Committee of the Society of Cardiovascular CT. His research interests include cardiac CT and evaluation of cardiomyopathies by MRI. He is an author of many scientific publications, as well as chapters in 3 books.

Dr. Rodriguez-Granillo (MD, PhD, FACC) is a staff cardiologist in the Department of Cardiovascular Imaging at Diagnostico Maipu, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. His main clinical interests are focused on the assessment of coronary atherosclerosis and cardiovascular imaging by means of computed tomography, magnetic resonance, and intravascular ultrasound.  Dr. Rodriguez-Granillo has published a textbook of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance, and has contributed to several chapters in other medical textbooks related to his specialty interests. He has published over 100 papers , and is in the Editorial Board of numerous international journals.
