Beskrivning

Multiple Faces of Takotsubo Syndrome: Clinical Presentations, Mechanisms and Advanced Diagnostic Insights offers a thorough review of Takotsubo syndrome and the role of advanced imaging techniques in improving diagnosis, monitoring, and management of this complex cardiac condition. The book begins with an introduction to Takotsubo syndrome, covering its historical background, prevalence, and key clinical characteristics. Subsequent chapters delve into epidemiology, risk factors, and psychological aspects, including the impact of COVID-19 and other viral infections. Then, clinical manifestations, management, prevention, and treatments are thoroughly discussed, along with complications and prognosis. The basic science section explores the pathophysiological mechanisms, the heart-brain axis, and multi-organ involvement.

A significant focus throughout is placed on invasive and non-invasive imaging modalities, including angiography, echocardiography, cardiac MRI, computed tomography, and nuclear imaging. Future directions highlight emerging biomarkers and imaging techniques for personalized medicine, and real-world case studies provide practical insights for clinicians. The book offers invaluable benefits to scientists, researchers, and clinicians alike.
