Abstract:
"Snapshots of Hemodynamics: An Aid for Clinical Research and Graduate Education is a quick reference guide designed to help basic and clinical researchers and graduate students to understand hemodynamics. The layout of the book provides short and independent chapters that include teaching diagrams as well as clear descriptions of the essentials of basic and applied principles of hemodynamics. References are provided at the end of each chapter for further reading and reference."--Jacket.
