Описание: Most imaging books are ordered according to underlying etiology. However, in real life clinical practice, radiologists usually make their differential diagnoses according to the image patterns, as the etiology is often unknown. Brain Imaging with MRI and CT presents over 180 disease processes and normal variants, grouping entities by these basic patterns to accentuate differential diagnostic features. High quality CT and MRI scans show multiple typical and distinguishing images for each entity. Common and unusual clinical scenarios are described, including dilated perivascular spaces, capillary teleangiectasia, Susac's syndrome and desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma. Both basic and advanced imaging techniques are used, reflecting the reality of clinical practice. This image-focused book emphasises the most pertinent clinical information relevant to the diagnostic process. Trainee and practising radiologists will find Brain Imaging with MRI and CT an invaluable and clinically relevant tool for learning and teaching.

Описание:
Did you ever ask whether music makes people smart, why a Parkinson patient's gait is improved with marching tunes, and whether Robert Schumann was suffering from schizophrenia or Alzheimer's disease? This broad but comprehensive book deals with history and new discoveries about music and the brain. It provides a multi-disciplinary overview on music processing, its effects on brain plasticity, and the healing power of music in neurological and psychiatric disorders. In this context, the disorders the plagued famous musicians and how they affected both performance and composition are critically discussed, and music as medicine, as well as music as a potential health hazard are examined. Among the other topics covered are: how music fit into early conceptions of localization of function in the brain, the cultural roots of music in evolution, and the important roles played by music in societies and educational systems.
Topic: Music is interesting to almost everybody
Orientation: This book looks at music and the brain both historically and in the light of the latest research findings
Comprehensiveness: This is the largest and most comprehensive volume on "music and neurology" ever written
Quality of authors: This volume is written by a unique group of real world experts representing a variety of fields, ranging from history of science and medicine to neurology and musicology
Описание: The only complete and up-to-date book addressing the most common behavioural symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, including depression, anxiety, hallucinations, delusions, confusion and delirium, disrupted sleep, and compulsive behaviour. When people think about Parkinson's disease they usually picture tremors, shuffling, and other physical changes. But as many as 90% of all Parkinson's patients also live with behavioural symptoms which few families are prepared to handle. In <em>Making the Connection Between Brain and Behavior</em>, second edition, Dr. Joseph H. Friedman, a leading expert in PD, explains the most common behavioural issues in down-to-earth, straightforward language, offers the most current research on available therapies and medications, and provides guidance on ways to communicate with your healthcare team. <br><br>Now, fully updated and revised throughout and including three new chapters and two new appendices, <em>Making the Connection Between Brain and Behavior</em> includes even more information on a variety of treatment options, including Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT). It is an essential resource for every person with PD and his or her family.
The book presents the confluence of wearable and wireless inertial sensor systems, such as a smartphone, for deep brain stimulation for treating movement disorders, such as essential tremor, and machine learning. The machine learning distinguishes between distinct deep brain stimulation settings, such as 'On' and 'Off' status. This achievement demonstrates preliminary insight with respect to the concept of Network Centric Therapy, which essentially represents the Internet of Things for healthcare and the biomedical industry, inclusive of wearable and wireless inertial sensor systems, machine learning, and access to Cloud computing resources.
Imperative to the realization of these objectives is the organization of the software development process. Requirements and pseudo code are derived, and software automation using Python for post-processing the inertial sensor signal data to a feature set for machine learning is progressively developed. A perspective of machine learning in terms of a conceptual basis and operational overview is provided. Subsequently, an assortment of machine learning algorithms is evaluated based on quantification of a reach and grasp task for essential tremor using a smartphone as a wearable and wireless accelerometer system.
Furthermore, these skills regarding the software development process and machine learning applications with wearable and wireless inertial sensor systems enable new and novel biomedical research only bounded by the reader's creativity.

Описание:
Human beings have made images continuously for more than thirty thousand years. The oldest known cave paintings are between six and ten times older than the first forms of written language. Images help us organize our thoughts and represent them in our memory. We make images, Jonathan Fineberg argues, because we need them to aid not only in structuring our social and psychological self-conceptions but also in developing the circuitry of our brains.
Modern Art at the Border of Mind and Brain is a broad investigation by one of the foremost scholars of modern art of the relationship between modern art and the structure of the mind and brain. Based on Fineberg’s Presidential Lectures at the University of Nebraska, his book examines the relationship between artistic production, neuroscience, and the way we make meaning in form. Drawing on the art of Robert Motherwell, Joan Mir?, Alexander Calder, Christo, Jean Dubuffet, and others, Fineberg helps us understand the visual unconscious, the limits of language, and the political impact of art. Throughout, he works from the conviction that looking is a form of thinking that has a profound impact on the structure of the mind.
Описание: This is the first book on X and Y chromosomal disorders to address these common but rarely diagnosed conditions. This book seeks to present the latest in research and clinical care addressing neuroimaging, the interaction between hormones, brain development, and neurodevelopmental progression. This book will primarily focus on 47, XXY (Klinefelter syndrome, or KS), 47, XYY (Jacobs' syndrome), and 47, XXX (Triple X). More variant disorders such as 48, XXXX, 48, XXXY and 49, XXXXY will be discussed. Topics of interest include neurological functioning, neuroimaging, social language, and the evolving perspectives of these XY chromosomal disorders. The effects of testosterone supplementation in males with 47, XXY will also be examined.

Описание: The practice of endovascular neurosurgery is becoming more and more common. Endovascular techniques have increased our understanding of cerebrovascular diseases, and evolving technologies have expanded our means of treatment. This increasing complexity requires a neurosurgeon to increase clinical capacity and develop professional knowledge. However, narrow clinical focus also breeds prejudice, competition and controversy. These reactions may be positive when they stimulate innovation, improve patient outcomes, cause suspicion and hinder progress. Now these factors are more common in neurovascular surgery. Endovascular technology has become a legitimate alternative to open neurosurgical technology. In this textbook, we focus on brain AVMs, which is the last difficulty of endovascular neurosurgery. Neurosurgeons, endovascular neurosurgeons and interventional neuroradiologists are invited to publicly express their views and practices. The authors are very famous in the world and their contributions are very valuable. We believe in "the more you express your skills, the more experienced you become and the closer you get the excellence". This book provides many disruptive innovations and completely changes our previous understanding of brain AVMs. Three sections are included in this book: AVM of the brain is one type of systemic vascular abnormality; endovascular therapy of AVM of the brain; pathophysiology and pathogenesis of AVM and its surgical management and radiotherapy. We also provide a chapter of development of endovascular neurosurgery in China, which the readers may be interested in.
