Preface
This book is written to provide cardiovascular specialists with the tools to complete endovascular interventions of lower extremity peripheral artery occlusions with purpose and confidence. Effective information management and swift clinical decision-making play a powerful role in the life of an endovascular specialist. Acquiring chronic total occlusion (CTO) intervention skills in a systematic and reproducible manner need not be such a grueling and arduous task. With the right approach and comprehensive knowledge of specific tools, tackling peripheral artery CTOs can be rewarding for both the operator and the patient. During my years as a clinical and academic physician, training the next generation of endovascular specialists, I have watched operators initially daunted by the complexity and diversity CTO lesions grow to master this technically challenging procedure. With its step- by-step methodical approach, this book and its contents are designed to familiarize the reader with the current aspects of peripheral artery CTO intervention techniques and enable them to effortlessly bridge the gap in mastering this challenging, yet common, medical procedure.
