Central Venous Access

Here is an informative guide for interventionalists and generalists on the radiologic placement of venous access devices. This handy paperback book provides practical advice on assessing patients, selecting the appropriate device, caring for the catheter, preventing and managing complications, and setting up a line service in the radiology suite. The authors offer specific instructions on techniques for placing all types of devices--implantable ports, tunneled catheters, PICC lines, hemodialysis access catheters, and acute temporary care devices.
