Een citaat uit het werk van de Amsterdamse Geneesheer professor Nicolaas Tulp uit de zeventiende eeuw met daarin een fraai beschreven observatie van een patiënt met een acuut hartinfarct. Robbert J. de Winter werd benoemd als hoogleraar in de klinische cardiologie, in het bijzonder de 'Acute Coronaire Syndromen', hetgeen is te vertalen als 'hoogleraar hartinfarct'. In zijn oratie beschrijft hij de oorzaken van het ontstaan van atherosclerotisch vaatlijden en de biologische processen die leiden tot een hartinfarct, de nieuwe wetenschappelijke ontwikkelingen en wat we in de nabije toekomst kunne

The rapid evolution in cardiac computed tomography during the past decade has improved spatial and temporal resolution to the extent that cardiac CT is now an accepted alternative for the non-invasive interrogation of the heart. Beyond the assessment of cardiac structure and ventricular function, recent research has identified yet another promising CT application for the comprehensive diagnosis of coronary heart disease, namely the assessment of myocardial perfusion and viability. In this book, the first to be devoted to this novel application of CT, leading experts from across the world present up-to-date information and consider future directions. After short sections outlining the state of the art in the traditional applications of CT to image structure and function, the full range of CT techniques that may be employed to evaluate the myocardial blood supply are discussed in detail. Similarly, diverse CT approaches for the assessment of myocardial viability are described, with careful consideration of the available experimental and clinical evidence and the role of quantitative imaging.

Con la presente opera si vuole fornire al Lettore una rivisitazione schematica ma, nello stesso tempo, completa e aggiornata della problematica relativa alla Sindrome Coronarica Acuta, alla luce dell'enorme mole di letteratura pubblicata in merito negli ultimi dieci anni. Premettendo i concetti di elettrocardiografia e di istofisiopatologia, viene affrontata la riclassificazione nosologica della patologia coronarica acuta derivata dall'introduzione nella pratica clinica dei nuovi marker di necrosi miocardica, sottolineando anche la necessità che il Medico valuti il rischio intrinseco alla malattia attraverso il calcolo di specifici punteggi proposti dagli studi clinici. Sulla base di questi nuovi concetti, si analizzano i diversi percorsi terapeutici che devono essere posti in essere, percorsi sia puramente farmacologici, sia più "aggressivi" in termini di operatività. Ampio spazio viene pertanto dato alle modalità d'impiego dei nuovi trattamenti antitrombotici e alle modalità di scelta fra terapia farmacologica e approccio invasivo mediante coronarografia e angioplastica; un bivio che pone talora il Medico in difficoltà, ma che puo' implicare, se le opzioni vengono affrontate con razionalitö, un radicale cambiamento del destino del paziente.

Nuclear cardiology is no longer a medical discipline residing solely in nuclear medicine. This is the first book to recognize this fact by integrating in-depth information from both the clinical cardiology and nuclear cardiology literature, and acknowledging cardiovascular medicine as the fundamental knowledge base needed for the practice of nuclear cardiology. The book is designed to increase the practitioner's knowledge of cardiovascular medicine, thereby enhancing the quality of interpretations through improved accuracy and clinical relevance.The text is divided into four sections covering all major topics in cardiology and nuclear cardiology: Basic Sciences and Cardiovascular Diseases Conventional Diagnostic Modalities Nuclear Cardiology Management of Cardiovascular Diseases.
