Collateral Circulation of the Heart

Více o knize

Focusing on the functional relevance of collateral circulation in the heart, the author reflects on 18 years of scientific inquiry aimed at reducing complexity in understanding coronary circulation. The work critiques historical misconceptions, particularly regarding angina pectoris, which was long viewed as invariably fatal, neglecting the heart's self-healing capabilities. The author acknowledges the inherent risks of oversimplification in scientific research while emphasizing the importance of generating and testing hypotheses in the pursuit of knowledge about coronary artery disease.
