Vascular brachytherapy for the prevention of restenosis is a new frontier in the field of interventional cardiology, as well as in radiation oncology, with use of radiation therapy for benign diseases. Given the advances in this field since publication of the first edition, Ron Waksman and Patrick Serruys have expanded the focus of this new edition with additional chapters on new machines and techniques. There are several new chapters on clinical trials and on safety tips. The book comes with an accompanying CD-ROM: 'The Thoraxcenter Brachytherapy Devices Big Parade' by Stephane Carlier, Ron Waksman and Patrick W Serruys.
