Angiografische beoordeling van Re-stenose na percutane transluminal coronaire angioplastiek
The thesis deals entirely with the assessment of coronary anatomy by quantitative angiography, and while developing the technique for the assessment of restenosis it also points out the limitations of the technique. By not paying sufficient attention to fundamentals of clinical measurement, such as variability, precision and predictability, we have followed the same path that many other systems for assessing disease severity have trodden before us. The lessons learned in dealing with this relatively new clinical problem should be applied to other areas of clinical medicine
