Interventional Cardiology: 900 Questions: An Interventional Cardiology Board Review
Insightful questions have been used through the ages as a metric to assess one’s knowledge, but when coupled with carefully delivered answers they can become a powerful teaching tool. This book of questions and annotated answers covering the field of interventional cardiology is meant to serve as a helpful resource for individuals preparing for the interventional cardiovascular medicine board examination as well as for clinicians who wish to perform an in-depth self-assessment on individual topics or the full spectrum.
The book has many key features, whichwe believe will make the reader successful in passing the boards and improving clinical practice.

Of foremost importance, the areas covered are relevant not only to the day-to-day practice of interventional cardiology, but have also been patterned in scope and content to the actual board examination. The book begins with several chapters dedicated to the anatomy and physiology associated with interventional cardiology and the pathobiology of atherosclerosis and inflammation. This corresponds to the 15% of the board examination targeting material in basic science. The subsequent chapters focus on the essential interventional pharmacotherapy of antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and other commonly used medications in the catheterization laboratory and outpatient setting for patients with atherosclerosis. These chapters correspond to the next 15% of the boards centering on pharmacology. A similar-sized 15% of the board examination is directed toward imaging, and the book includes specific chapters on radiation safety, catheterization laboratory equipment and technique, contrast agents, and intravascular ultrasound. The two largest areas of the examination, each covering 25% of the content, include case selection–management and procedural techniques.
The review book dedicates 25 chapters to comprehensively cover these areas. Finally, we have included chapters for the miscellaneous remaining areas covered by the board examination, including peripheral vascular disease, ethics, statistics, and epidemiology, as well as a chapter directed at improving test-taking skills.
