Principles of Heart Valve Engineering
Auteur : Kheradvar Arash
Principles of Heart Valve Engineering is the first comprehensive resource for heart valve engineering that covers a wide range of topics, including biology, epidemiology, imaging and cardiovascular medicine. It focuses on valves, therapies, and how to develop safer and more durable artificial valves. The book is suitable for an interdisciplinary audience, with contributions from bioengineers and cardiologists that includes coverage of valvular and potential future developments. This book provides an opportunity for bioengineers to study all topics relating to heart valve engineering in a single book as written by subject matter experts.

Dr. Kheradvar founded KLAB, the Kheradvar research group, in 2007. The lab aims to study to the cardiovascular fundamental problems and devise translational solutions to ultimately help patients with cardiovascular disease by developing better diagnostic tools and more efficient therapeutic devices. KLAB is focused on research areas related to Heart Valve Engineering, Cardiovascular Imaging, and Cardiac Mechanics.
- Covers the depth and breadth of this interdisciplinary area of research
- Encompasses a wide range of topics, from basic science, to the translational applications of heart valve engineering
- Contains contributions from leading experts in the field that are heavily illustrated
