      abstract = {In this concise but authoritative book, the authors take  the reader through the epidemiology, risk factors and the  basic mechanism of coronary artery disease. In addition,  they explain how coronary microvascular dysfunction can  lead to angina, even after successful angioplasty following  a heart attack. The methods for diagnosis and the options  for treatment are explained, ending with a discussion of  the evolution of coronary angioplasty from balloon  catheters to novel, fully resorbable polymeric drug eluting  stents. Enclosed is a list of currently available  commercial devices, as well as a listing of experimental  products under research and development, so that readers  can appreciate the serious nature of this disease and have  an understanding of how the medical device sector is  attempting to address this major healthcare problem.  Globally in 2010, ischemic heart disease was the cause of  13.3% of all deaths. In the US alone, the direct medical  costs from coronary artery disease and stroke are currently  estimated to be $126 billion per year, and are expected to  rise to $309 billion by 2035.},
