Description: Addresses the pathology in mouse models of heart disease, providing the reader with essential information on technical assays in artificially created models. It includes background information on individual cardiovascular diseases, describes detailed methods and materials used for establishing each mouse model, discusses the problems that may appear in the experiments, and provides examples of applications of the model. The movies on the accompanying CD allow researchers to lean the techniques by directly watching the whole operation.
