Invasive non invasive cardiovascular imaging. Role of machine learning and artificial intelligence

editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 168
Cardiovascular imaging has faced a momentous development in the last few decades thanks to refinements in imaging technologies, multimodality integration, and focus on different clinical applications ranging from prevention to diagnosis, prognosis, decision making, and follow-up. These developments equally apply to standard non-invasive imaging modalities, including echocardiography, duplex ultrasound, cardiac magnetic resonance, computed tomography, and nuclear cardiology. Most recently, breakthroughs in data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence have been applied to pre and post-processing of imaging data. This synergy between refined cardiovascular imaging methods and novel computing approaches holds the promise of enhanced diagnostic and prognostic accuracy, as well as improved clinical decision making with an ever increasing focus on individualized cardiovascular care.

Embriologia. L'essenziale. Before we are born

editore: Piccin-Nuova Libraria
pagine: 344
Prefazione“Before We Are Born: Essentials of Embryology and Birth Defects” è in stampa da più di 46 anni. Questo testo più conciso deriva dal nostro più esteso libro di testo “The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology” (11a edizione).La decima edizione di “Before We Are Born: Essentials of Embryology and Birth Defects” è stata completamente rivista ed aggiornata sulla base delle recenti conoscenze dell’embriologia clinica. Essa fornisce le informazioni essenziali dello sviluppo normale e patologico. Come già fatto precedentemente, anche in questa edizione le informazioni cliniche sono state evidenziate in verde (spesso identifi cate come “tabelle ad orientamento clinico”). Ogni capitolo è stato aggiornato profondamente includendo le più recenti evidenze sperimentali ed i relativi signifi cati clinici, così come le nuove conoscenze relative alla biologia dello sviluppo.Questa edizione rispetta la nomenclatura ufficiale internazionale dei termini embriologici (Terminologia Embryonica 2013). A questo proposito risulta importante che medici, scienziati, infermieri, odontoiatri, terapisti occupazionali, altre tipologie di professionisti e studenti che operano nel settore sanitario utilizzino la stessa terminologia per identifi care ogni struttura. Abbiamo incluso in questa edizione numerose immagini a colori di embrioni, di feti (normali e anormali), neonati e bambini. Ci sono, inoltre, molti immagini diagnostiche: ecografi e, tomografi e, risonanze magnetiche di embrioni e feti.Un’importante caratteristica di questo testo è rappresentata dalle “domande ad orientamento clinico”, presenti alla fi ne di ogni capitolo.La sessione dedicata alla te ratologia (gli studi relativi ai difetti congeniti) è stata aggiornata perché lo studio dello sviluppo anormale è necessario per determinare le cause dei difetti congeniti e come questi potrebbero essere prevenuti. Gli aspetti molecolari dello sviluppo embrionale sono stati evidenziati nel testo, con particolare riferimento alle aree più promettenti nel campo della medicina clinica e della ricerca. Infine, il capitolo 20 è dedicato ad approfondire nel dettaglio i meccanismi cellulari e molecolari dello sviluppo embrionale.Keith L. MooreT.V.N. (Vid) PersaudMark G. Torchia

editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 224
Spasticity is a common condition after stroke that may contribute to limitations in performance of activities and participation. In order to properly manage post-stroke spasticity there is a need for its adequate understanding and updated knowledge. This book gives a wide insight into post-stroke spasticity and aims to provide high-quality comprehensive information about its multidisciplinary management. Organized into ten chapters, this book deals with the pathophysiology, prediction, clinical presentation, assessment and treatment of post-stroke spasticity. As to the therapeutic approach to post-stroke spasticity, pharmacological treatments, nerve procedures, rehabilitation and neuro-orthopedics are discussed. Chapters about the use of ultrasound and the management of pain related to post-stroke spasticity are also included. Considering its international perspective given by the board of authors, this book may represent a valid support for the clinical management of post-stroke spasticity also opening up some points of scientific reflection on this issue.
