Vascular and interventional radiology (VIR) is an exciting subspecialty which utilizes image-guidance to perform a variety of minimally invasive, vascular and non-vascular procedures to treat a wide range of diseases. Procedures are performed in the VIR suites using ultrasound, fluoroscopy or x-ray, and CT scanning for guidance. Instead of large incisions required for some open surgeries, these procedures are performed through small incisions, allowing catheters, needles and other devices to be guided to the treatment site. This book has 5 chapters including: Chapter I (Introduction), Chapter II (Carotid Stenting and Angioplasty), Chapter III (Renal Artery Angioplasty and Stenting), Chapter IV (Intracranial Angioplasty and Stenting), Chapter V (Angioplasty and Stenting in Peripheral Arteries). We will be happy if this book is used as an academic book by medical students.
