This illustrated text and reference should give vascular surgeons, cardiologists, radiologists, and technologists a complete working knowledge of intravascular ultrasound imaging and the crucial role of this new technology in endovascular diagnosis and therapy. The book reviews the essential principles of vascular pathology and ultrasound imaging then provides state-of-the-art information on intraluminal ultrasound imaging devices and techniques, including practical guidelines for using catheters, optimizing image quality, and avoiding artifacts. Image interpretation and computerized image reconstruction are also discussed in detail. The final section explains the diagnostic, therapeutic, and experimental applications of intravascular ultrasound, particularly as an adjunct to angioplasty and other current interventional procedures.
Part 1 The changing spectrum of cardiovascular intervention - role of intraluminal ultrasound: pathophysiology of vascular disease; lesion distribution and development of interventional methods; vascular imaging techniques; critical issues in endovascular diagnosis and therapy. Part 2 Principles of diagnostic ultrasound imaging: physics of ultrasound; ultrasound image production-pulse-echo principle; ultrasound beam and transducer characteristics imaging modes; transducer designs and configurations; complete ultrasonic imaging systems; glossary of key words and abbreviations. Part 3 Intraluminal ultrasound imaging - development and devices: early intraluminal ultrasound devices; intravascular cross-sectional imaging; imaging configurations; high-frequency intravascular ultrasound. Part 4 Intraluminal ultrasound imaging techniques: vascular access; catheter techniques. Part 5 Computerized intravascular ultrasound image reconstruction: principles of computerized image processing; techniques of image reconstruction; limitations of computerized image reconstruction. Part 6 Intravascular ultrasound image interpretation: transmural imaging - tissue characterization, dimensional morphology, lesion distribution; luminal imaging - assessment of endovascular intervention, dissections - flaps, stenoses - cross-sectional area. Part 7 Current and developing clinical applications of intravascular ultrasound: diagnostic applications - luminal and transmural imaging, interventional control data, aortic dissection - coarctation, intravascular tumour assessment; therapeutic applications - guided endovascular therapies, Stent deployment, assessment of restenosis; experimental applications - plaque morphology - selection of therapeutic modality, plaque volume measurement, combined imaging and Doppler flowmetry.
