Interventional Neuroradiology

Edited by
Robert W. Hurst Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania
Robert H. Rosenwasser Thomas Jefferson University
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
"Interventional neuroradiological techniques have revolutionized therapy for vascular disorders of the head, neck, and central nervous system. These procedures now provide noninvasive treatment for many of the most common neurological disorders and make possible treatment of numerous patients for whom there were no reasonable therapeutic options before."

Encyclopedia of Neuroscience

Editors:Marc D. Binder Department of Physiology & Biophysics
University of Washington School of Medicine Seattle, Washington, USA

Graduate School of Medicine University of Tokyo

The entire complex of neuroscience has been divided into 38 subject fields organized and surveyed by associated Field Editors. Entries, which are in alphabetical order for rapid localization, are of three type:(1) simple and relatively brief definitions and explanations (glossary entries), (2) structured “essays” of a few pages to provide coherent treatments of particularly important topics, and (3) synopses written by the Field Editors as larger overviews of their fields with links to the essays in their field. Extensive cross-references to definitions and essays serve to lead the reader to additional sources of information.
As a printable version (5 volumes, more than 4,500 pages)
With 1625 Figures and 90 Tables

"Movement disorders represent major causes of neurological disability and eventual mortality affecting millions of people across the globe.Surgery represents an alternative where there existed only finite treatment options before. This field is developing rapidly with emerging novel therapies as well as evolving indications for existing procedures."Gordon H. Baltuch,Matthew B. Stern

MOLECULAR NEUROSURGERY WITH TARGETED TOXINS

Edited by RONALD G. WILEY, MD, PhD Departments of Neurology and Pharmacology,
Vanderbilt University School of Medicine
Douglas A. Lappi, PhD
Advanced Targeting Systems, San Diego, CA
The use of targeted cytotoxins in experimental neurobiology is a new field. This strategy involves producing highly selective neural lesions by targeting a cytotoxin into specific neurons based on their binding to surface membrane targets, such as neurotransmitter or growth factor receptors.The expression of surface membrane molecules correlates with the function of specific types of neurons."Molecular Neurosurgery with Targeted Toxins" seeks to provide a selected collection of examples of this approach that have been implemented with great success.

The Legacy of Harvey Cushing Profiles of Patient Care

By Aaron Cohen Gadol and Dennis Spencer
This beautifully illustrated book features 800 of Cushing's surgical drawings and photographs of patients and tumor specimens. Preserved untouched for sixty years in the Yale University Library, the images provide the earliest catalog of neurological and neuropathological disease and reveal the techniques employed by the founder of modern neurosurgery.
Originally presented to The Congress of Neurological Surgeons at the 2006 annual meeting.

Cerebral Vasospasm

R. Loch Macdonald

Vasospasm is a soluble problem, and the solution is long overdue. Progress has been retarded because the knowledge base required to solve the problem is, in large part, fragmented.
Macdonald and Weir's Cerebral Vasospasm is the definitive work on the subject; it is truly a magnum opus and contains essentially all of the information one needs or wants to know about vasospasm.

Operative Atlas of Meningiomas

Operative atlas of meningiomas,
By Ossama Al-Mefty
1998
"This atlas is a visual presentation of the surgical treatment of meningiomas. Meningiomas of the cranial base are emphasized, particularly those in the parasellar and petroclival areas. The atlas is or­ganized according to the surgical approaches." Al Mefty
Featuring more than 800 intraoperative photographs and diagnostic images as well as more than 500 finely detailed color surgical drawings, this Operative Atlas of Meningiomas provides site-specific, type-specific coverage of current approaches to surgical excision and resection.
