This is the third publication on the subject since 1996 by the author. The book starts with a short history of development followed by bsic principles, technique of performing a successful angiography and step by step guidance for interpretation. It explains the theory behind modern digital angiography. Each topic begins with a short clinical description of the disease involved followed by the fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography pattern including variations where applicable.
