Abstract: Handbook of Interventional Radiology and Angiography, second edition, by Dr. Myron Wojtowycz of the University of Wisconsin Medical School, provides an overview of the expanding applications of percutaneous therapeutic interventions, as well as a review of contemporary indications for visceral and peripheral angiography. Diagnostic angiography is organized by anatomic area, followed by chapters addressing catheter angioplasty and vascular recanalization techniques, thrombolysis, and embolotherapy. Lower extremity venography, pulmonary angiography, and vena cava filter placement comprise a separate grouping of chapters. Lymphography, needle biopsy, and nonvascular interventions are addressed in the concluding portion of the book. Each chapter begins with key concepts and continues with a discussion of indications, relevant anatomy, technique risks, diagnostic findings, pathologic considerations, and follow-up patient care.
