Samenvatting
The book will be written by the experts in the disease including imaging, interventional cardiology and surgical valve expertise. The book has five main sections:
Aortic Valve Disease
Mitral Valve Disease
Tricuspid Valve Disease
Pulmonic Valve Disease
Multimodality Imaging
The main objectives of the book are:
1- to provide the main guidelines to clinicians on how to identify and diagnose valvular heart disease
2- to provide an overview of what the near future will bring in the diagnosis, prevention and risk stratification of patients to catheter versus surgical approaches
3- to outline the possible implications for medical therapies in slowing progression of calcific aortic valve disease and myxomatous mitral valve disease
