Atlas of Cardiac Anatomy: Anatomical Basis of Cardiac Interventions, V1

"This atlas should be studied in detail and its images burned into the brain of everyone who performs interventional procedures, from trainees to the most experienced operators. The images should be referred to frequently and will create a valuable roadmap that must be followed. The appeal of the images will, of course, extend beyond the proceduralist to include all those with a serious interest in cardiac anatomy who want to take this clear and concise educational journey.We congratulate Drs. Shivkumar and Mori on the wonderful achievement that is this atlas. It will help us better understand the anatomy crucial to diagnosing and treating our patients as well as advance cardiovascular science. We are excited that the first volume in the Anatomical Basis of Cardiac Interventions series, which details the anatomy of the normal adult heart, will be followed by future volumes that extend this important exploration." — Francis E. Marchlinski, MD; William G. Stevenson, MD, Atlas of Cardiac Anatomy

Dr. Mori is a physician scientist who is serving as the Director of the Specialized Program for Anatomy & Imaging at UCLA Cardiac Arrythmia Center. His field of specialization is cardiac anatomy and advanced clinical imaging. He has a long track record of publications and has published several books. He currently serves as an editor of Clinical Anatomy and Section Editor at the Journal of the American College of Cardiology: Clinical Electrophysiology.

Dr. Shivkumar is a physician scientist serving as the inaugural director of the UCLA Cardiac Arrhythmia Center & EP Programs (since its establishment in 2002) and as the Director and Chief of UCLA's Cardiovascular and Interventional Programs. He leads a team that provides state-of-the-art clinical care and has developed several innovative therapies for the non-pharmacological management of cardiac arrhythmias and other cardiac diseases. He has a long track record of research publications and books. He has been elected as a member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation (ASCI), the Association of American Physicians (AAP), the Association of University Cardiologists (AUC), and is as an honorary fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London (FRCP).
