This his is a comprehensive book on vascular anatomy and the lymphatic system with high quality illustrations. This is an essential text for the daily practice of the cardiovascular physician, the interventional radiologist or vascular surgeon. It is intended to be used as a quick and practical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular anatomy. This 2nd Edition has been fully revised, expanded and updated to include all vascular areas to correlate with the functional and critical anatomical structures related to clinical applications. The text is supported by modern image modalities, including for instance, multi-slice CT technology, digital subtraction and MRI with recent software in 2D, 3D, high resolution, and fast scanning times.

This book is highly recommended for all vascular anatomies, cardiovascular physicians, vascular surgeons, cardiologists, medical students, residents and fellows who are interested in vascular diseases. This book is an excellent
