“This book is extremely comprehensive and thorough…I would recommend this book to any radiologist or cardiologist with more than a passing interest in cardiovascular imaging.”

"This will be an excellent reference for clinical cardiologists, advanced imaging cardiologists, and cardiology fellows rotating through cardiac imaging. The constant comparison between cardiac anatomy and the acquired images will be particularly useful for fellows in training."
