Diagnosis is the first stone, which needs to be turned in order to discover the cure. Progress in the diagnosis and management of patients with congenital and acquired heart diseases has been intimately tied to technological developments in cardiac imaging. In this book, the advancements in the field of these diagnostic techniques and their clinical applications in the practice of cardiology have been extensively discussed. The role of rest and stress electrocardiography and echocardiography has been emphasized.
The success of angiocardiography stimulated the continued development of selective catheter coronary arteriography, which is the driving force in the growth and increased effectiveness of coronary artery bypass surgery, prosthetic valvular replacement, and valve repair.
