  • "Leading experts from the University of Minnesota's renowned Lillehei Heart Institute and scientists from Medtronic, Inc., have assembled a concise yet detailed and comprehensive reference source of information on the anatomic features, underlying physiologic mechanisms, and treatments for diseases of the heart. The busy bioengineer working on cardiac devices will find here the complete critical background needed to understand cardiac pacing, defibrillation, cardiac repair using stem cell therapy, robotics, less invasive cardiac surgery, biventricular pacing, cardiac bioenergetics, and more. Insightful chapters address animal models for cardiac research, cardiac mapping systems, heart valve disease, ventricular assist devices, and genomics-based tools and technology. Two companion compact disks offer unique insights into the working heart."
  • "Because of rapid growth in the medical device industry-which today enjoys revenues as large as those of the automobile industry-as well as in our understanding of cardiac disease processes, biomedical engineers must cope with a rising tide of highly complex information. In Handbook of Cardiac Anatomy, Physiology, and Devices, leading experts from the University of Minnesota's renowned Lillehei Heart Institute and scientists from Medtronic, Inc. have compiled a concise-yet detailed and comprehensive-reference source on the anatomic features, underlying physiologic mechanisms, and treatments for diseases of the heart. Here, active bioengineers working on cardiac devices will find the complete critical background they need to understand cardiac pacing, defibrillation, cardiac repair using stem cell therapy, robotics, less invasive cardiac surgery, biventricular pacing, cardiac bioenergetics, and more. Insightful chapters address animal models for cardiac research, cardiac mapping systems, heart valve disease, ventricular assist devices, and genomics-based tools and technology. Comprehensive and state-of-the art, the Handbook of Cardiac Anatomy, Physiology, and Devices provides novice and expert biomedical engineers alike with the authoritative information and background they need to work on tomorrow's generaton of life-saving cardiac devices."@en

Included electronic files on the companion DVD that will enhance this textbook's utility. Part of the companion DVD, the "The Visible Heart Viewer," was developed as a joint venture between the laboratory at the University of Minnesota and the Cardiac Rhythma Management Division at Medtronic, Inc. Importantly, this electronic textbook also includes functional images of human hearts. These images were obtained from hearts made available via LifeSource, more specifically through the generosity of families and indivividuals who made the final gift of organ donation (these hearts were not deemed viable for transplantation). Furthermore, the companion DVD contains various additional color images and movies that were provided by the various authors to supplement their chapters."
  • "With the medical device industry growing at an incredible pace, and the overall understanding of the molecular basis for disease on the rise, today's bio-medical engineers face a constant challenge to re-tool or reinvent devices that remain in step with medical science. In Handbook of Cardiac Anatomy, Physiology, and Devices, Second Edition, leading experts from the University of Minnesota's renowned Lillehei Heart Institute and scientists from Medtronic, Inc. have thoroughly updated and expanded upon the critically acclaimed first edition with the latest information on the anatomic features,"@en
