Most biology-oriented books misinterpret the physiology of arterial stiffness and pulsatile arterial hemodynamics based on physics. A proper understanding of the field requires both biologic/clinical and biophysical/bioengineering knowledge which Arterial Stiffness and Pulsatile Hemodynamics in Health and Disease provides in a comprehensive yet simplified manner. The resource is organized into five parts covering principles, physiology, biologic pathways, clinical implications and therapeutics and provides a thorough overview of the field, presenting complex engineering concepts in a way that those in science and medicine can more easily understand.
Arterial Stiffness and Pulsatile Hemodynamics in Health and Disease includes detailed illustrations, animations and slide shows. Additionally, advanced bioengineering concepts presented in boxes for the reader who wants more in-depth biophysical knowledge. This is a must-have reference for students, researchers and clinicians interested in learning more about this field.
