The PCR-EAPCI Percutaneous Interventional Cardiovascular Medicine Textbook is an all-inclusive reference book whose scope and content is patient-centered and promotes evidence-based clinical practices. It continues to be By and For the interventional community and dedicated to the patients it serves. This textbook includes over 110 illustrated chapters dedicated to diagnosis, coronary interventions, structural heart disease, and peripheral interventions. It covers everything clinical and practical that today’s interventional cardiologist needs to know and offers updated content throughout the year.
The PCR-EAPCI Textbook is produced with the needs of the interventional cardiovascular community in mind. Hundreds of expert authors make this a valuable resource for daily practice, in study, and in discussion with colleagues. It is interactive and develops with the community, reacting to specific needs brought by new evidence and experience.
