An Essential Text from a World-Renowned Expert in Cardiology

A unique resource for medical examiners and forensic specialists, Forensic Cardiovascular Medicine draws upon Dr. Basil RuDusky’s vast experience to provide coverage of the clinical aspects of cardiac disease in a forensic context. The book emphasizes some of the most frequently encountered cardiovascular medical problems facing the medical examiner or forensic medical specialist, while also placing special emphasis on those conditions and disease states that are apt to be overlooked, misdiagnosed, or tardily considered.

Covers death certificates, autopsies, and the role of the medical examiner Presents 25 case studies from the author’s experience to illustrate concepts, including cardiac trauma, vascular abnormalities, specific cardiopathic disorders, and toxic, physical, technical, epidemiological, and social influences Contains the first complete classification of myocardial contusion and blunt cardiac trauma Includes a special section on the cardiovascular effects of breast cancer therapy

Dr. RuDusky has served as a consultant for the federal government, corporations, insurance companies, and independent medical service agencies. He sits on the manuscript review board for several medical journals and is associate editor of Angiology, the official international journal of the American Society of Angiology and the International Academy of Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis. In this volume, he brings his considerable expertise to this survey of the topic.

Stressing the importance of honesty, integrity, and accuracy of data, he provides an insightful and interesting approach to the problems facing today's medical community. ... will become a must-read for medical practitioners and legal experts."" --John H. Ellis, IV, M.D., F.A.C.C., Chairman, Department of Cardiology, Wyoming Valley Healthcare System and Wilkes-Barre General Hospital ""As a beginning Resident in Internal Medicine, I feel that Dr. RuDusky's book ... is a must-read for any new and training physician. I especially found the section on ""Illustrative Case Reports"" to be significant since they are not topics normally stressed in basic medical education. I now understand why Dr. RuDusky is considered to be a medical expert in his own right."" --Damien M. Marycz, M.D., Internal Medicine Resident, Cleveland Clinic ""Dr. RuDusky has always been fair, impartial, logical, and concise in his analysis of my medical negligence cases. This book adds significantly to a better understanding of the complex medicine behind his opinions."" --Robert K. Randall, Prominent Midwest malpractice attorney ""As an experienced civil trial attorney in New Jersey, I must say the material contained in the ideas surrounding and underlying this book are significant and would represent a major contribution for use by physicians, physicians' students, lawyers, and judges connected with the field of forensic medicine in many different contexts. I would look forward to receiving and using a completed copy of this publication."" --Michael D. Schottland, Prominent Eastcoast malpractice attorney ""The book under review is a unique resource for medical and medico legal professionals. … Dr. Basil RuDusky has had a vast experience in dealing with medico legal cases dealing with cardiovascular trauma, and in this book, he draws upon his experiences to churn out a masterpiece. … Perhaps the most illustrative part of the book is section VII, which gives as many as 25 illustrative case reports … This book is the very first which deals with forensic and medico legal aspects of cardiovascular medicine. In my opinion, it is an absolute must for all medical and medico legal professionals and medical examiners."" —Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology
