Neurological and Neurosurgical Emergencies addresses emergencies in all fields of neuroscience, including disciplines like Neurology, Neurosurgery, Neuroanaesthesia, and Neuroradiology. This volume covers neurosurgical emergencies, like hydrocephalus, brain edema, intracranial bleed, intracranial hematoma, infection, and trauma, alongside neurovascular emergencies like acute ischemic stroke, non-traumatic, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, carotid cavernous fistula, and arteriovenous malformation.In addition, the book discusses common emergencies in neurology, including status epilepticus, refractory epilepsy, super-refractory epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders. Beginning with neurological examination of patients through to anesthetic management of various emergencies, this book features clear images that accompany each emergency with learner-friendly features such as flow-charts, figures, text boxes, and algorithms. This book provides insights into all possible aspects of emergency management and the anesthetic management of such patients.

L’ouvrage• Devenu un « classique » dès sa première édition, l’Abrégé de neurologie présente, de façon claire, pratique et complète, les troubles neurologiques selon une approche sémiologique en s’appuyant sur l’anatomie et la physiologie et en intégrant les nouvelles connaissances apportées par la neuropsychologie et la neurogénétique. L’ouvrage décrit les affections neurologiques les plus fréquentes et propose une stratégie pour le diagnostic neurologique à la lumière de l’imagerie médicale et des explorations électrophysiologiques et métaboliques.• Cette 14e édition est entièrement revue et actualisée, en fonction notamment des évolutions des thérapeutiques et des méthodes diagnostiques. La structure de l’ouvrage a également été révisée, pour une meilleure lisibilité, en tenant compte des développements de certains sujets, et l’ajout de nouveaux chapitres : « Cervelet – Ataxies cérébelleuses », « Mouvements anormaux » et « Émotion, motivation, comportement et cognition ».• Cette nouvelle édition présente ainsi les connaissances actuelles en neurologie tout en conservant l’approche qui a fait la réputation de cet ouvrage : la place donnée la neurologie clinique et l’intégration de la sémiologie dans l’organisation structurelle et physiologique du système nerveux, dans le souci de les rendre compréhensibles pour tous.Le publicCet abrégé s’adresse aux étudiants de 2e et 3e cycles de médecine. Il intéressera également les neurologues et tous les praticiens confrontés à des symptômes ou à des troubles neurologiques.Les auteursJean Cambier † était membre de l’Académie de médecine et professeur de clinique neurologique.Maurice Masson est neurologue, professeur des universités.Catherine Masson est neurologue, praticien hospitalier.Henri Dehen † était professeur de neurologie.

Radiomics and Radiogenomics in Neuro-Oncology: An Artificial Intelligence Paradigm, Volume One: Radiogenomics Flow Using Artificial Intelligence broadly encompasses the study of life-threatening brain and spinal cord malignancies, including primary lesions and those metastasizing to the central nervous system. Radiomics is an approach to medical imaging used to extract many quantitative imaging features using different data characterization algorithms, while radiogenomics, which has recently emerged as a novel mechanism in neuro-oncology research, focuses on the relationship of imaging phenotype and genetics of cancer. Sections in this book discuss several AI approaches that have been applied to conventional and advanced medical imaging data. These AI-based R-n-R tools have the potential to stratify patients into more precise initial diagnostic and therapeutic pathways and permit better dynamic treatment monitoring in this period of personalized medicine. While extremely promising, the clinical acceptance of R-n-R methods and approaches will primarily hinge on their resilience to non-standardization across imaging protocols and their capability to show reproducibility.

From Brain Dynamics to the Mind: Spatiotemporal Neuroscience explores how the self and consciousness is related to neural events. Sections in the book cover existing models used to describe the mind/brain problem, recent research on brain mechanisms and processes and what they tell us about the self, consciousness and psychiatric disorders. The book presents a spatiotemporal approach to understanding the brain and the implications for artificial intelligence, novel therapies for psychiatric disorders, and for ethical, societal and philosophical issues. Pulling concepts from neuroscience, psychology and philosophy, the book presents a modern and complete look at what we know, what we can surmise, and what we may never know about the distinction between brain and mind.

Using a highly readable, conversational writing style, Practical Approach to Electroencephalography, 2nd Edition, makes a complex and critically important subject easier to understand. It provides just the right amount of guidance you need, explaining EEG waveforms starting with the basics, then bringing you to a sophisticated level in interpreting EEG tracings—explaining what to do, what not to do, what to look for, and what the results mean. Emphasizing pattern recognition and also why the patterns look the way they do, Dr. Libenson’s approachable text focuses on the types of EEG tracings you are likely to encounter in your EEG laboratory, both in the outpatient lab and in the ICU, concentrating at first on the questions and problems encountered by the beginner and non-expert, but bringing you up to the level of an expert.

The goal for this special edition of Progress in Brain Research extends beyond merely probing the yet-to-be-uncovered links between physical exercise and cognitive improvement. We aim to advance our knowledge, pushing the envelope of what is currently understood. We are particularly focused on how purposefully structured physical activities, carefully chosen participant groups, and specific cognitive areas can optimize the cognitive and mental health benefits derived from physical exercise. The inaugural volume of this series introduces 3 review articles and 7 original pieces of research, encompassing both behavioral experiments and neuroimaging studies. Our focus is on experimental research that sheds light on the immediate and long-term impact of physical exercise on cognition as well as expert opinions and systematic reviews that compile current findings and suggest avenues for upcoming research.
