The Interventional Radiology volume of the landmark reference Abrams´ Angiography has now been expanded and thoroughly revised to reflect dynamic advances in interventional radiology. More than 60 contributors representing a \"Who´s Who\" of the specialty provide comprehensive, step-by-step coverage of all contemporary vascular and nonvascular interventional procedures. Major sections discuss today´s equipment and describe interventions for specific disorders of each organ system, as well as for trauma, pediatric diseases, abscess drainage, and miscellaneous disorders. Fifteen new chapters cover cutting-edge innovations, including stent-grafts, radiofrequency ablation, CT angiography, MR angiography, uterine fibroid embolization, and vertebroplasty. More than 1,100 illustrations complement the text.
