Coronary microvascular obstruction in acute myocardial infarction : from mechanisms to treatment / edited by Giampaolo Niccoli, Ingo Eitel.

Coronary Microvascular Obstruction in Acute Myocardial Infarction: From Mechanisms to Treatment provides a comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon of coronary microvascular obstruction (CMVO) that is the main limitation of reperfusion therapies in ST-elevation myocardial infarction. It provide...
