Focusing on both the patient's perspective and the neurosurgeon's concerns, Intracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: Essentials for Patients and Practitioners, edited by leading experts Drs. Philip E. Stieg, Alexander A. Khalessi, and Michael L. J. Apuzzo, starts with an up-to-date approach to the matter of doctor-patient communication and moves on to the highly technical details of AVM treatment options. The first section covers communication with patients (who may well want to read it themselves); the second section is directed to neurosurgeons and other specialists caring for patients with intracranial AVMs, including those in emergency medicine, obstetrics, anesthesia, and intensive care. It offers a highly sophisticated but readable approach to the contemporary treatment of these challenging lesions. - Provides expert guidance on diagnosis, histopathology, natural history, anatomy, imaging, and treatment options and their risks and benefits—all with the goal of helping patients make informed decisions about the optimal management choices for their own individual cases. - Facilitates articulate, data-driven discussion and regarding the clinical diagnosis and surgical procedures involved in treating AVMs. - Addresses specific, difficult issues that arise during the treatment of AVMs, offering real-world advice to neurosurgeons and other care providers. - Includes key pearls in every chapter, as well as stunning anatomical illustrations throughout.

This book reviews the natural course of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) disease and the active treatment modalities. These are compared with surgical and neuropsychological results achieved at the Military University Hospital, Prague, Czech Republic. Based on these comparisons, treatment recommendation for AVM is articulated. Furthermore, the long-term efficacy of different treatment is discussed. This book is written by an international group of European authors, and is aimed at neurovascular surgeons and neurosurgical residents.

This volume provides an overview of new concepts in neurovascular interventions based on clinical and scientific knowledge of cerebrovascular disorders. It especially focuses on subarachnoid hemorrhage and cerebrovascular malformations, e.g. aneurysms, arterio-venous malformations, and cavernomas. A separate part addresses cerebral revascularization for both complex aneurysms and ischemia. All contributions were written by recognized experts and cover original papers presented at the 7th European Japanese Stroke Surgery Conference, held in Verona, Italy in June 2014. The authors present new trends and strategies for managing emerging problems, as well as in-depth discussions on controversial issues in the field.

Neuroimaging, Part Two, a volume in The Handbook of Clinical Neurology series, illustrates how neuroimaging is rapidly expanding its reach and applications in clinical neurology. It is an ideal resource for anyone interested in the study of the nervous system, and is useful to both beginners in various related fields and to specialists who want to update or refresh their knowledge base on neuroimaging. This second volume covers imaging of the adult spine and peripheral nervous system, as well as pediatric neuroimaging. In addition, it provides an overview of the differential diagnosis of the most common imaging findings, such as ring enhancement on MRI, and a review of the indications for imaging in the most frequent neurological syndromes. The volume concludes with a review of neuroimaging in experimental animals and how it relates to neuropathology. It brings broad coverage of the topic using many color images to illustrate key points. Contributions from leading global experts are collated, providing the broadest view of neuroimaging as it currently stands. For a number of neurological disorders, imaging is not only critical for diagnosis, but also for monitoring the effect of therapies, with the entire field moving from curing diseases to preventing them. Most of the information contained in this volume reflects the newness of this approach, pointing to the new horizon in the study of neurological disorders. - Provides a relevant description of the technologies used in neuroimaging, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, and several others - Discusses the application of these techniques to the study of brain and spinal cord disease - Explores the indications for the use of these techniques in various syndromes
