| Summary, etc. | Cardiovascular imaging is dynamic … not just in the literal sense as one follows<br/>cardiac contraction, but in a more global sense as this book highlights its continuing evolution. Cardiac imaging continues to undergo dramatic technical advances<br/>that spur new applications. The cycle of innovation, application, and innovation is<br/>seen repeatedly in this text. This book does a superb job of capturing the state of<br/>the art.<br/>While there are many cardiac imaging methods, magnetic resonance provides<br/>by far the most comprehensive and diverse approach to understanding cardiovascular physiology and disease. The contributors to this book describe methods<br/>that cover the scale from molecular to macro. At the molecular level, hyperpolarized MRI (Chap. 4) and in vivo spectroscopy (Chaps. 5 and 6) probe cardiac<br/>metabolites in both endogenous and enhanced molecular species. At the cellular<br/>level, molecular-specific contrast agents yield insight into atherosclerosis (Chap.<br/>8) through longitudinal studies that follow the evolution of plaques. At the cytoarchitectural scale, diffusion MRI and tractography (Chap. 3) illuminate details<br/>of the functional building units of the heart. At the meso- and macroscale,<br/>dynamic imaging methods (Chaps. 1, 2, and 9) simultaneously yield structure<br/>and function.<br/>This book is comprehensive in a second important sense in that it covers cardiovascular disease in a truly interdisciplinary fashion. The fundamental physics<br/>of NMR is discussed in a comprehensible and relevant fashion. Engineering<br/>details of pulse sequences and novel strategies for measuring stress and strain are<br/>made clear. The chemistry underlying the metabolic pathways is accessible.<br/>Methods for quantitative measure of cardiovascular physiology and mechanics are<br/>included. Throughout, the many interdisciplinary threads are woven into the fabric of clinical cardiovascular disease. This book will find ready use by both basic<br/>scientists and clinicians seeking to use NMR/MRI to further understand cardiovascular disease. |
