Description
Springer Regulation of Coronary Blood Flow 1st Editon 2013 Softbound by Michitoshi Inoue, Masatsugu Hori, Shoichi Imai, Robert M. Berne
Research centering on blood flow in the heart continues to hold an important position, especially since a better understanding of the subject may help reduce the incidence of coronary arterial disease and heart attacks. This book summarizes recent advances in the field; it is the product of fruitful cooperation among international scientists who met in Japan in May, 1990 to discuss the regulation of coronary blood flow. Contents: New Approaches for Coronary Flow Measurement.- Neural Control of Coronary Blood Flow.- Role of Adenosine in Regulation of Coronary Blood Flow.- Role of Endothelial Cells in Coronary Circulation.- Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury in the Experimental and Clinical Studies.
