Focusing on procedural protocols and equipment, this pocket-sized reference explains how to perform current interventional radiological procedures and addresses related issues for risk management, outpatient care, diagnostic arteriography, nursing management, and drug administration. The 89 chapters list indications, contraindications, patient preparation, basic steps for each procedure, and possible complications. Black and white drawings illustrate some procedures. The fourth edition adds 29 chapters on CT angiography, endoleaks, and percutaneous vertebroplasty. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
