Deals with the use of a catheter threaded into the carotid artery to prevent stroke or relieve pre-stroke symptoms, followed by the placement of a stent. This book also covers intracranial as well as extracranial procedures.

This handbook supplements hands-on training in interventional cardiology with a specific focus on percutaneous intervention in patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis. It carries reviews of landmark studies supporting carotid endarectomy and stenting and is a comprehensive guide to this exciting and burgeoning field.
