The Clinical Neuropsychiatry of Stroke
Cognitive, Behavioral and Emotional Disorders Following Vascular Brain Injury
Robert G. Robinson
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 480
This second edition, published in 2006, covers the range of neuropsychiatric syndromes associated with stroke, including cognitive, emotional and behavioural disorders such as depression, anxiety and psychosis. There is growing recognition among a wide range of clinicians and allied healthcare staff that post-stroke neuropsychiatric syndromes are common and serious. Such complications can have a negative impact on recovery and even survival; however, there is now evidence suggesting that pre-emptive therapeutic intervention in high-risk patient groups can prevent the initial onset of the conditions. This opportunity for primary prevention marks a huge advance in the management of this patient population.

This is a handbook on dermatologic differential diagnosis and clinical management, focusing on sixty-two challenging and vexing clinical cases that the Shelleys have encountered in over fifty years of patient practice in dermatology. The management problems of these extremely perplexing cases go far beyond evidence-based medicine. Each case is presented as a well-written vignette, told in a case-study tone. The authors first present the background of each case in a concise, thorough, manner including all the important clinical details, including tests and results. The authors then reveal the process involved in the diagnosis and the therapy involved.

Radiology Made Easy
Arpan K. Banerjee
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 198
Radiology plays a central role in diagnosis, management and even treatment of a patient's condition. The increasing importance of radiology in clinical medicine has led to the inclusion of the subject in medical school curricula worldwide. Most radiology teaching for medical students is conducted around films of real patients on the ward or in tutorial groups within the radiology department itself and, by reflecting this method of learning, the approach of this book will be familiar to students studying radiology at undergraduate level. The book adopts a systemic approach to cover the commonest clinical problems that are encountered on the wards, in tutorials and in examinations. Clear radiographs are each presented with brief reports and an accompanying discussion of the diagnosis, differential diagnosis and potential further investigations. This new edition is enhanced with many new images, and all are now clearly labelled and arrowed to highlight significant diagnostic features.

Head and Neck Cancer Imaging
A. L. Baert , Robert Hermans
editore: Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. K
pagine: 382
This book provides a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art imaging in head and neck cancer. Precise determination of tumor extent is of the utmost importance in these neoplasms, as it has important consequences for staging of disease, prediction of outcome and choice of treatment. Only the radiologist can fully appreciate submucosal, perineural, and perivascular tumor spread, and detect metastatic disease at an early stage. Imaging is also of considerable benefit for patient surveillance after treatment. All imaging modalities currently used in the management of head and neck neoplasms are considered in depth, and in addition newer techniques such as PET-CT and diffusion-weighted MRI are discussed. This book will help the reader to recommend, execute and report head and neck imaging studies at a high level of sophistication and thereby to become a respected member of the team managing head and neck cancer.
