This book presents a selection of cardiology cases seen by the author and charts a course of enquiry to stimulate clinical thinking and accurate diagnosis.
Comprising 50 chapters, each one presents a clinical case and a question encouraging trainees to consider the answer in detail before consulting those given in the book.
The cases cover many different subspecialties in cardiology including heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, pericardial disease, and many others found in both adults and children.
As well as being highly illustrated, the book includes complimentary access to more than 150 video clips.
