Dr Katritsis is an interventional cardiologist and electrophysiologist, leading a multidisciplinary team of clinical and invasive cardiologists and basic scientists. He has a PhD on coronary angioplasty from the University of London, and has been Lecturer In Clinical Cardiology at St George's Hospital, London. He performs all kinds of interventional cardiology procedures including complex coronary intervention and TAVR, ablation of complex arrhythmias, and implantation of devices. Besides his clinical involvement, Dr Katritsis runs an active research program and has published over 250 original articles in international journals on most aspects of cardiology but mainly on coronary circulation, indications of intervention, and arrhythmias. He is on the editorial board of several cardiology journals, and has participated in most European and American textbooks of cardiology with contribution of chapters.; Professor John Camm qualified in 1971. He worked at Guy's Hospital before working at

This is not just a textbook; it is an extraordinary 'toolkit'... probably the book that better serves the cardiovascular specialist in day-to-day practice than any other written in the last two decades - Dr Fuster, Mount Sinai Hospital, USA
