Stroke och cerebrovaskulär sjukdom
- 2007
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Modern strokebehandling kräver att ett flertal olika specialiteter samverkar vilket gör kunskaper utöver det egna ämnesområdet nödvändiga. Det har hittills saknats en bok som gör att specialisten inom såväl den öppna som slutna vården dels kan hålla sig à jour med det egna området, dels fördjupa sig i angränsande kunskapsområden med dess snabba förändringar. Den första svenska boken om stroke och cerebrovaskulär sjukdom ger en bred översikt över de viktigaste aspekterna på en av våra stora folksjukdomar och omfattar såväl epidemiologiska fakta som den anatomiska och fysiologiska bakgrunden till stroke som en cerebrovaskulär sjukdom. Utöver de senaste diagnostiska metoderna tar den upp principiella fakta om profylax och behandling samt resultat och rehabilitering. Nyare behandlingsformer som trombolys, interventionell kateterbehandling och endovaskulär stentning samt förändringar inom den öppna kirurgin redovisas utförligt. Boken riktar sig till alla som är inblandade i behandling och vård av strokepatienter, i första hand specialister inom den öppna och slutna vården.

Cardiovascular calcification
- 2022. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The book systematically describes the clinical and scientific aspects of cardiovascular calcification. Chapters detail the mechanisms associated with arterial and valve calcification, relevant risk factors, pathophysiology and the latest therapeutic techniques. Recent diagnostic technological developments including how computed tomography (CT) scanning can be utilized along with Agatston score to quantify coronary arterial calcification when investigating whether a patient for sub-clinical atherosclerosis are covered. The correlation with the presence of arterial calcification and extent of coronary stenosis is also explored. Cardiovasular Calcification details relevant aspects of the basic science and reviews the latest pathological and therapeutic techniques used in treating patients with cardiovascular calcification. It is therefore an essential resource for practicing cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, vascular specialists and radiologists.

Clinical echocardiography
- 2012. - 2
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The main target of clinical and academic cardiology activities is to optimize the patient’s management and ultimately their welfare. Professionals manage patients according to their own understanding of disease process; clinicians concentrate on alleviating the symptoms and echocardiographers on identifying the disease. This book helps to ‘cross the barrier’ and describes the common ground between physiologic disturbances and their management which should ideally form the shared basis for understanding and managing all cardiac problems. A practical review of the many uses of echocardiography in clinical practice, Clinical Echocardiography is designed to integrate and refine the investigation of cardiac disorders within the framework of the pathologic, physiologic and surgical appearances of heart disease. It has been common to consider echocardiographic findings separately from the more physical aspects of heart disease. However, with the development of new imaging modalities such as three- and four-dimensional echocardiography, it has become necessary to consider this imaging as a window on the heart. This book aids the cardiologist, cardiac surgeon and echocardiographer to integrate their knowledge within the overall management of cardiac disease in a clinically relevant manner.

Early Vascular Aging (EVA) : New directions in cardiovascular protection
- 2015
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Early Vascular Aging (EVA): New Directions in Cardiovascular Protection brings together the last decade of research related to the characterization of EVA, as well as the predictive power of pulse wave velocity (PWV). The book presents a novel approach to the problem of cardiovascular disease, showing it in relation to great vessels disease and revealing a comprehensive approach to the problem of increased rigidity of the great vessels, its causes, and further consequences. Information provided is accompanied by online access to a supplemental website with video clips of anatomic specimens, cardiac imaging, and surgical procedures. Key Features: Introduces the latest information on early vascular aging (EVA), complete with summaries of recent evidence and guidelines for relevant risk factor control. Ideal reference for the study of vascular aging, pulse wave velocity, arteriosclerosis, EVA, arterial stiffness, vascular, PWV biomarkers, and cardiovascular disease. Contains all the relevant information available from different fields of knowledge (from basic biology to epidemiology) in regard to EVA. Provides evidence that leads to a new target for interventions, early vascular aging (EVA) in subjects with early onset increased arterial stiffness. Includes online access to a supplemental website with video clips of anatomic specimens, cardiac imaging, and surgical procedures.
