Treatment Options in Urological Cancer


Treatment Options in Urological Cancer
By Jonathan Waxman


* Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell
* Number Of Pages: 408
* Publication Date: 2002-01-28
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0632055898
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780632055890

Product Description:

Cancer forms a large part of urological practice. Prostate cancer is the most significant and is the second most common cause of male cancer deaths with some 300,000 cases in the USA annually. Cancer of the bladder is also common. While treatment has been primarily surgical, recent years have seen an explosion of new drug therapies for urological cancers.

All urologists, whether in training or in practice, need an up-to-date survey of the literature and key findings in this important and controversial field.

This book takes each organ in turn (prostate, kidney, bladder, testis and penis) and tackles the controversies head-on by inviting chapters on various (often rival) treatments for each disease. Each section is then concluded by a commentary from the editor which draws together the various strands, outlines the principal areas of consensus and disagreement.

Jonathan Waxman is an oncologist who specialises in urological tumours and has developed new treatments for prostate, bladder and kidney cancer and for terminal care, which are now part of standard practice. He founded the Prostate Cancer Charity and helped establish an all-party parliamentary group to improve cancer treatment and research throughout the UK.

Pathology of Incipient Neoplasia


Pathology of Incipient Neoplasia
By Donald Earl Henson, Jorge Albores-Saavedra


* Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
* Number Of Pages: 856
* Publication Date: 2001-02-15
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0195123387
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780195123388


Product Description:

Many malignant tumors have a morphologically recognizable precursor lesion. As screening and early detection have improved our ability to detect lesions at increasingly earlier stages of growth, an increased number of precancerous lesions are seen by pathologists. Unfortunately, a lack of uniform histologic criteria for precursors found in many organs can make diagnostic interpretation difficult. It is evident that physicians are seeking a better understanding of the genesis and progression of these lesions and their early biology, to provide optimal treatment and patient care.
Pathology of Incipient Neoplasia 3E brings together all of the information available on the clinicopathologic features of precancerous lesions, defined to include atypical hyperplasias, in-situ changes, microinvasive or very small cancers in some sites, and other lesions recognized as potential precursors for invasive cancer. In some tissues, benign tumors may serve as precursors to malignant tumors, and therefore these also are considered.
Organized by organ, each heavily-illustrated chapter is written by a well-recognized expert, to stress different facets of preneoplasia and minimally invasive tumors in that given tissue. Areas where strides have been made in research on molecular biologic aspects of neoplasia are discussed in conjunction with morphologic parameters. A chapter on salivary glands, and more than 350 color photos interspersed throughout the text, are new to this edition.

Medical Malpractice


Medical Malpractice
By Frank A. Sloan, Lindsey M. Chepke


* Publisher: The MIT Press
* Number Of Pages: 464
* Publication Date: 2008-02-29
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0262195720
* ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780262195720


Product Description:

Most experts would agree that the current medical malpractice system in the United States does not work effectively either to compensate victims fairly or prevent injuries caused by medical errors. Policy responses to a series of medical malpractice crises have not resulted in effective reform and have not altered the fundamental incentives of the stakeholders. In Medical Malpractice, economist Frank Sloan and lawyer Lindsey Chepke examine the U.S. medical malpractice process from legal, medical, economic, and insurance perspectives, analyze past efforts at reform, and offer realistic, achievable policy recommendations. They review the considerable empirical evidence in a balanced fashion and assess objectively what works in the current system and what does not.

Sloan and Chepke argue that the complexity of medical malpractice stems largely from the interaction of the four discrete markets that determine outcomes—legal, medical malpractice insurance, medical care, and government activity. After describing what the evidence shows about the functioning of medical malpractice, types of defensive medicine, and the effects of past reforms, they examine such topics as scheduling damages as an alternative to flat caps, jury behavior, health courts, incentives to prevent medical errors, insurance regulation, reinsurance, no-fault insurance, and suggestions for future reforms. Medical Malpractice is the most comprehensive treatment of malpractice available, integrating findings from several different areas of research and describing them accessibly in nontechnical language. It will be an essential reference for anyone interested in medical malpractice.

* Publication Date: 2007-07-17
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0387312684


Book Description:
In the 20 years that have passed since the publication of the first edition, both Poison Control Centers and Emergency Departments have witnessed an expansion in the number and variety of poisonings caused by toxic plants. At the same time, there is a proliferation in the diversity of plants in our gardens and homes, continually expanding the range of possible consequences from exposure to toxic plants.

This second edition of the Handbook of Poisonous and Injurious Plants is created to assist the clinician in the initial response to the needs of a child or adult exposed to a poisonous or injurious plant. It lists common plants that might lead to the development of the symptom complex and describes the mechanisms of action of the implicated toxin, additional clinical manifestations, and specific therapeutics for each presentation. It has methodically enhanced the previous editions botanical rigor with insights from both pharmacognosy and clinical medicine to make it a truly comprehensive source.

With its thorough references and full-color photos of hundreds of potentially toxic and injurious plants inside the home, anyone who has an interest in plants will find this book useful outside in the garden or out in the wild.

This book will fascinate botanists, horticulturists, and naturalists as well as hikers, gardeners, and all those who simply enjoy the wonders of nature and the great outdoors!

Surgeons need to know about genetics and how it interacts with modern surgical practice because inherited diseases contribute to a substantial proportion of the surgical workload. Recognition of a positive history of disease in a family will allow genetic testing and precise diagnosis, leading to the ability to presymptomatically screen at-risk members of a family and allow screening and prevention strategies to be implemented. This book will provide surgeons with an introduction to the principles of genetics and information on common surgical conditions that have a hereditary tendency.

Angiogenesis in Inflammation: Mechanisms and Clinical Correlates


Angiogenesis in Inflammation: Mechanisms and Clinical Correlates (Progress in Inflammation Research)
By Michael P. Seed, David A. Walsh


* Publisher: Birkhäuser Basel
* Number Of Pages: 180
* Publication Date: 2008-09-25
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3764376260


Product Description:
Angiogenesis is an essential component of inflammation and its resolution. This volume provides up-to-date information on the latest developments in the pathology, mechanisms and therapy of angiogenesis dependent inflammatory disease. Recent years have seen large advances in angiogenesis research, especially in oncology. Traditionally mechanisms in inflammation angiogenesis were inferred from tumour angiogenesis, however recent research has matured highlighting the similarities and dissimilarities between these processes. This volume relates the lessons learned from tumour biology applied to inflammation.
Angiogenesis in Inflammation: Mechanisms and Clinical Correlates develops current knowledge on the mechanisms at the molecular and cellular levels as they relate to inflammation, including acute and chronic inflammation, neurogenic initiation, and the role of the multiple cellular components that comprise inflammation: granulocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, dendritic cells and lymphocytes. This is related to inflammatory diseases: not only the familiar angiogenesis dependent diseases of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, but also loci such as the lung, gastric ulcers, the eye with uveitis, wound healing and periodontal disease and their therapy. The book shows how this knowledge may be used in the discovery of novel therapeutics. It brings together experts in each of these fields to link the molecular and cellular processes in angiogenesis to those of inflammation and disease, culminating in a discourse on areas for future therapies.

Counselling Skills For Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors


Counselling Skills For Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors (Counselling Skills)
By Dawn Freshwater


* Publisher: Open University Press
* Number Of Pages: 128
* Publication Date: 2003-04-01
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0335207812


Product Description:

"This book is compact and easy to read, and could make a significant contribution to practitioners' ability to communicate effectively and make their practice patient centred."
Journal fo Clinical Nursing

"This is a delightful book which is well written, easy to read and suitable for students, qualified nurses and those who are specialist nurses."
Journal of Community Nursing

Counselling is a diverse activity and there are an increasing number of people who find themselves using counselling skills, not least those in the caring professions. There is a great deal of scope in using counselling skills to promote health in the everyday encounters that nurses have with their patients. The emphasis on care in the community and empowerment of patients through consumer involvement means that nurses are engaged in providing support and help to people to change behaviours.

Community nurses often find themselves in situations which require in-depth listening and responding skills: for example, in helping people come to terms with chronic illness, disability and bereavement. Midwives are usually the first port of call for those parents who have experienced miscarriages, bereavements, or are coping with decisions involving the potential for genetic abnormalities. Similarly, health visitors are in a valuable position to provide counselling regarding the immunization and health of the young infant. These practitioners are having to cope not only with new and diverse illnesses, for example HIV and AIDS, but also with such policy initiatives as the National Service Framework for Mental Health and their implications .

This book examines contemporary developments in nursing and health care in relation to the fundamental philosophy of counselling, the practicalities of counselling and relevant theoretical underpinnings. Whilst the text is predominantly aimed at nurses, midwives and health visitors, it will also be of interest to those professionals allied to medicine, for example physiotherapists, occupational therapists and dieticians.

Understanding and Treating Borderline Personality Disorder


Understanding and Treating Borderline Personality Disorder: A Guide for Professionals and Families
By John G. Gunderson, Perry D., Ph.D. Hoffman


* Publisher: American Psychiatric Publishing, Inc.
* Number Of Pages: 192
* Publication Date: 2005-02
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1585621358

Product Description:

Understanding and Treating Borderline Personality Disorder: A Guide for Professionals and Families offers both a valuable update for mental health professionals and much-needed information and encouragement for BPD patients and their families and friends. The editors of this eminently practical and accessible text have brought together the wide-ranging and updated perspectives of 15 recognized experts who discuss topics such as

* A new understanding of BPD, suggesting that individuals may be genetically prone to developing BPD and that certain stressful events may trigger its onset
* New evidence for the success of various forms of psychotherapy, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), in reducing self-injury, drug dependence, and days in the hospital for some groups of people with BPD
* Pharmacology research showing that the use of specific medications can relieve the cognitive, affective, and impulsive symptoms experienced by individuals with BPD, as part of a comprehensive psychosocial treatment plan
* New resources for families to help them deal with the dysregulated emotions of their loved ones with BPD and to build effective support systems for themselves

Yet much remains to be done. Research on BPD is 20 to 30 years behind that on other major psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Despite evidence to the contrary, much of the professional literature on BPD continues to focus on childhood trauma, abuse, and neglect as triggers for BPD—to the detriment of both patient and family.

Families of people with BPD must deal with an array of burdens in coping with the illness, often without basic information. The chapters on families and BPD give voice to the experience of BPD from the perspective of individuals and family members, and offer the hope that family involvement in treatment will be beneficial to everyone.

Above all, this book is about the partnership between mental health professionals and families affected by BPD, and about how such a partnership can advance our understanding and treatment of this disorder and provide hope for the future.

Listeria, Listeriosis, and Food Safety, Third Edition


Listeria, Listeriosis, and Food Safety, Third Edition (Food Science and Technology)
By Elliot T. Ryser, Elmer H. Marth


* Publisher: CRC
* Number Of Pages: 896
* Publication Date: 2007-03-27
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0824757505

Product Description:

Since the second edition of Listeria, Listeriosis, and Food Safetywas published in 1999, the United States has seen a 40 percent decline in the incidence of listeriosis, with the current annual rate of illness rapidly approaching the 2010 target of 2.5 cases per million. Research on this food-borne pathogen, however, has continued unabated, concentrating in the last five years on establishing risk assessments to focus limited financial resources on certain high-risk foods.

Listeria, Listeriosis, and Food Safety, Third Edition summarizes much of the newly published literature and integrates this information with earlier knowledge to present readers with a complete and current overview of foodborne listeriosis. Two completely new chapters have been added to this third edition. The first deals with risk assessment, cost of foodborne listeriosis outbreaks, and regulatory control of the Listeria problem in various countries. The second identifies specific data gaps and directions for future research efforts.

All of the chapters from the second edition have been revised, many by new authors, to include updated information on listeriosis in animals and humans, pathogenesis and characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes, methods of detection, and subtyping. The text covers the incidence and behavior of Listeria monocytogenes in many high-risk foods including, fermented and unfermented dairy products, meat, poultry, and egg products, fish and seafood products, and products of plant origin.

Upholding the standard of the first two editions, Listeria, Listeriosis, and Food Safety, Third Edition provides the most current information to food scientists, microbiologists, researchers, and public health practitioners.

Techniques in the Surgical and Catheter-Based Treatment of Venous Disorders.


Techniques in the Surgical and Catheter-Based Treatment of Venous Disorders. An Issue of Operative Techniques in General Surgery, September 2008 Volume 10, Issue 3

Publisher:SAUNDERS
Pages:54
September 2008
ISSN: 1524-153X

The surgical management of venous disease is filled with dichotomies. Procedures span the spectrum from the most mundane saphenous vein stripping (one of the first procedures I did as an intern) to sophisticated central venous reconstructions. Venous surgery tends not to be glamorous, playing second fiddle to arterial reconstruction but frequently is technically more demanding and very dependant on meticulous technique. Diagnosis may be straightforward as in identifying lower extremity varicosities or extremely challenging as in confirming a true thoracic outlet syndrome. Though responsible for a great deal of morbidity in the population as a whole, it receives less attention than it deserves from caregivers. The patient who presents with DVT now frequently is sent home immediately on injectable anticoagulants “per protocol,” deceptively minimizing the long-term sequelae of chronic venous stasis disease. Venous disease is the Rodney Dangerfield of surgery, getting little respect. This is a mistake as Dr. Illig and his colleagues capably illustrate in this issue of Operative Techniques in General Surgery. They show the numerous surgical options available to treat various venous disorders and the evolving nature of those treatments. This broad reaching issue spans newer treatments for the lowly varicosity all the way to the complexities of vena cava and subclavian vein reconstruction. Just as tackling venous disease takes a special kind of surgeon with a special commitment to succeed, so did Dr. Illig take on the challenging task of organizing this issue, something that a less motivated individual might shy away from. He has recruited a truly elite group of surgeons to create this unique issue on this often-minimized surgical topic. I thank him and his contributors sincerely for a valuable compendium that brings to the forefront the surgical options available to the patient with venous disease.

Optimal Treatment Strategies For End Stage Renal Failure


Optimal Treatment Strategies For End Stage Renal Failure
By Claude Jacobs


* Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
* Number Of Pages: 320
* Publication Date: 2002-07-15
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0192629719


Product Description:

During the past 40 years there have been major conceptual and technical advances in the domain of dialysis methods and renal/organ transplantation for long-term treatment of patients with End-Stage Renal Failure (ESRF). This now enables better defined, more selective strategies of treatment to be undertaken, according to patient-specific criteria such as age or underlying renal disease also taking into account the lifetime duration of these treatments. For many patients this implies necessary successive changes of mode of therapy depending on their availability, occurrence of medical/technical complications or failure and social environment and economic factors. This rationale has inspired the structure of this volume which is divided into four sections: 1/A descriptive overview of the various modes of renal replacement therapy (RRT): Extracorporeal dialysis/filtration, peritoneal dialysis, kidney and multi-organ transplantation. 2/Most appropriate indications and use of these methods, respective advantages, drawbacks and outcome in children, pregnant women and elderly patients. 3/ In diabetic patients and in patients with heredity/congenital diseases.4/ The ethical issues generated by this new domain in Medicine by limitations in treatment facilities or medical dilemas for acceptance, best technical choices, withdrawal or termination of RRT in individual patients. Finally, contributors from Eastern European Coutnries, Africa and Far Eastern Countries analyse the current status of RRT in their respective geographical area and the ways and means required for a wider implementation of RRT in thus far lesser economically developed countries where the great majority of the populations still have no access to these life-saving therapeutic procedures.

Carbon Monoxide and Cardiovascular Functions


Carbon Monoxide and Cardiovascular Functions
By Rui Wang


* Publisher: CRC
* Number Of Pages: 336
* Publication Date: 2001-10-30
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0849310415


Product Description:

Akin to nitric oxide, carbon monoxide (CO) was initially viewed as a pure toxic gas, yet it has been recently demonstrated to be an important endogenous molecule of gas that has profound physiological and pathophysiological effects on the cardiovascular system. In spite of the growing understanding achieved in this field, until now a comprehensive book summarizing the extraordinary advances in the research of the cardiovascular effects of CO has not been available. Carbon Monoxide and Cardiovascular Functions responds to the vexing challenges and exciting opportunities that confront researchers and clinicians studying the biological roles of CO in the cardiovascular system. This book presents many never-before-published results including the first case of human CO deficiency. It also discusses disorders where the cardiovascular effects of CO might have been altered, including hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and ischemic heart damage. A product of the collected knowledge of internationally respected scientists, this book serves as a standard reference summarizing recent developments, scientific controversies, and future directions in the study of the biological actions of CO on the cardiovascular system. By covering both ancient and state-of-the-art methodologies in great detail, Carbon Monoxide and Cardiovascular Functions, affords a rapid mastery of the powerful new advances in CO study.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Clinic Design


Complementary and Alternative Medicine: Clinic Design
By Ethan B Russo, Robert A Roush


* Publisher: Routledge
* Number Of Pages: 158
* Publication Date: 2003-06-05
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0789018039

Product Description
The information you need to choose—or to help create—a complementary/alternative medicine facility

Learn about emerging and traditional treatment techniques such as Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, Reiki, reflexology, prayer, homeopathy, yoga, meditation, aromatherapy, and massage. Author Robert Roush analyzes these modalities for effectiveness, and argues for an evidence-based approach for their use. Complementary and Alternative Medicine is useful to consumers and hospitals or clinics considering incorporating these modalities.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine works toward eliminating “camps” in heath care, seeking to establish treatment that has more to do with the patient than promoting one brand of medicine or a singular view of good health. The book presents comprehensive information on alternative medical systems, mind/body interventions, and biological-based, manipulative/body-based, and energy/metaphysical therapies, addressing education, licensing, and regulation needs for complementary and alternative medicine (CAM).

Complementary and Alternative Medicine includes:

* guidance on choosing modalities
* discussion of industry regulation and practitioner credentialing
* review of literature for CAM modalities
* recommendations for clinic design and structure
* recommendations for CAM industry standards for education and practice
* and much more!

This book addresses the “for or against” debate about CAM by establishing acceptable methods for combining complementary and alternative medicine modalities with conventional medicine. It is designed to be an essential resource for holistic practitioners, holistic medical doctors (AHMS), nurse practitioners (holistic), integrated medicine hospital programs, chiropractors, general public, medical schools, and holistic health teaching organizations.

Measles: Pathogenesis and Control (Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology)
By Diane E. Griffin, Michael B. A. Oldstone


* Publisher: Springer
* Number Of Pages: 296
* Publication Date: 2008-12-01
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 354070616X


Product Description:

Measles virus, one of the most contagious of all human viruses, has been largely contained by the development and use of a vaccine that was introduced 50 years ago. These two volumes were timed to honor the introduction of the vaccine and to record the enormous advancements made in understanding the molecular and cell biology, pathogenesis, and control of this infectious disease. Where vaccine has been effectively delivered, endemic measles virus transmission has been eliminated. However, difficulties in vaccine delivery, lack of health care support and objection to vaccination in some communities continue to result in nearly 40 million cases and over 300,000 deaths per year from measles.

By itself measles virus infection has and still provides some of the most interesting phenomena in biology. Following infection of dendritic cells, measles virus causes a profound suppression of the host’s immune response that lasts a number of months after apparent recovery from infection. Indeed, measles virus was the first virus to be associated with immunosuppression with many of the manifestations to be observed one hundred years later with HIV infection. Measles is also associated with development of both post-infectious encephalomyelitis, an autoimmune demyelinating disease, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder. How measles virus infects cells, spreads to various tissues and causes disease, as well as the role of the immune response, generation of new vaccines, and use as a vector for gene delivery are topics covered in these two volumes.

Electrocardiography in Ischemic Heart Disease: Clinical and Imaging Correlations and Prognostic Implications


Electrocardiography in Ischemic Heart Disease: Clinical and Imaging Correlations and Prognostic Implications
By Antonio Bayés de Luna, Miquel Fiol-Sala


* Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell
* Number Of Pages: 344
* Publication Date: 2008-01-09
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1405173629


Product Description:

The ECG is a fundamental diagnostic tool in cardiology, allowing accurate diagnosis and monitoring of acute and chronic ischemic heart disease. In this most comprehensive book of its kind, internationally renowned authors correlate electrocardiographic recordings with anatomical patterns of myocardial ischemia to improve the diagnosis and management of patients with ischemic heart disease.

The book is structured in two sections. Part One covers electrocardiographic patterns of ischemia, injury and infarction.

• Each chapter discusses a different ECG abnormality in turn, clearly explaining the ischemic insults and electrophysiological mechanisms underlying each pattern to promote rapid and accurate interpretation of the ECG in the clinical setting.
• ECG abnormalities are correlated with myocardial anatomy and coronary angiography to produce a series of practical diagnostic algorithms that allow the clinician to identify not only the occluded artery but the precise location of the occlusion within the artery, facilitating appropriate therapeutic decisions.
• The authors also propose a new classification of Q-wave myocardial infarctions based on imaging correlations with advanced techniques such as contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance.

Part Two of the book covers the ECG in clinical practice. Each chapter focuses on a different clinical syndrome, describing the role of the ECG in a global approach to the diagnosis, prognosis and risk stratification of patients with acute and chronic ischemic heart disease and guiding clinical decision-making.

Extensively referenced and illustrated throughout, this book is highly recommended for any clinician involved in the diagnosis and management of ischemic heart disease.

The Road to Successful CRT System Implantation: A Step-by-Step Approach


The Road to Successful CRT System Implantation: A Step-by-Step Approach
By Daniel Gras, Angel R. Leon, Westby G. Fisher


* Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell
* Number Of Pages: 112
* Publication Date: 2004-06-25
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1405117184


Product Description:

Cardiac resynchronization therapy is a new therapy for advanced heart failure patients. This therapy has been shown to improve quality of life, exercise capacity, NYHA classification, and even reverse the detrimental "reverse remodeling" that occurs in advanced heart failure - in patients already receiving optimal pharmacological therapy.

The typical patient has NYHA III/IV HF symptoms, a QRS > 120 ms, LVEDD > 55 mm, without any indication required for pacing. The therapy is available in an ICD device, too. CRT has been shown to be effective in patients with both ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.

The implant procedure is part of a learning curve. Many physicians who already perform electrophysiology procedures, or PPM, or ICD implants are the ideal implanter - but are surprised at the challenges this implant presents. This book will help "flatten" the learning curve for new physician implanting, and will provide a "guide' for those who have already started implanting.

The success rate is about 90o after 10 years of application, we have found that there are still patients who do not get access to this great therapy because of the complexity of the patient's anatomy, or physician skills.

The book is written by three authors with a great deal of experience culminating in over 3000 cases between them.

This book is intended for cardiologists who currently implant either or both pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators with cardiac resynchronization therapy (also called bi-ventricular pacing), or plan to implant in the future. This book will be extremely useful for the new cardiologist in training who is learning to implant devices.

Uncommon Causes of Stroke


Uncommon Causes of Stroke
By Louis R. Caplan, Julien Bogousslavsky


* Publisher: Cambridge University Press
* Number Of Pages: 576
* Publication Date: 2008-10-27
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0521874378


Product Description:

This compendium is unique because it provides authoritative discussions on the less common causes of stroke. Discussed within are various forms of angiitis, coagulation disorders, infective, paraneoplastic and metabolic disorders that may be associated with stroke, and a number of rare syndromes such as Eales disease and Fabry's disease.
This new edition contains detailed, up-to-date information about the nature, diagnosis, and treatment of those relatively uncommon types of cerebrovascular disease that cause strokes. New chapters include stroke in patients with Lyme disease, scleroderma, Cogan's syndrome, Chaga's disease, and HIV. It is therefore a unique scientific and clinical resource that provides a essential reference to help physicians diagnose and treat stroke patients who do not fit well into the usual clinical categories.

Quantitative EEG, Event-Related Potentials and Neurotherapy


Quantitative EEG, Event-Related Potentials and Neurotherapy
By Juri Kropotov


* Publisher: Academic Press
* Number Of Pages: 600
* Publication Date: 2008-09-01
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0123745128


While the brain is ruled to a large extent by chemical neurotransmitters, it is also a bioelectric organ. The collective study of Quantitative ElecrtoEncephaloGraphs (QEEG ? the conversion of brainwaves to digital form to allow for comparison between neurologically normative and dysfunctional individuals), Event Related Potentials (ERPs - electrophysiological response to stimulus) and Neurotherapy (the process of actually retraining brain processes to) offers a window into brain physiology and function via computer and statistical analyses of traditional EEG patterns, suggesting innovative approaches to the improvement of attention, anxiety, mood and behavior.

The volume provides detailed description of the various EEG rhythms and ERPs, the conventional analytic methods such as spectral analysis, and the emerging method utilizing QEEG and ERPs. This research is then related back to practice and all existing approaches in the field of Neurotherapy - conventional EEG-based neurofeedback, brain-computer interface, transcranial Direct Current Stimulation, and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation ? are covered in full. Additionally, software for EEG analysis is provided on CD so that the theory can be practically utilized on the spot, and a database of the EEG algorithms described in the book can be combined with algorithms uploaded by the user in order to compare dysfunctional and normative data.

While it does not offer the breadth provided by an edited work, this volume does provide a level of depth and detail that a single author can deliver, as well as giving readers insight into the personl theories of one of the preeminent leaders in the field.

Operative Atlas of Laparoscopic Reconstructive Urology


Operative Atlas of Laparoscopic Reconstructive Urology
By Manickam Ramalingam, Vipul R. Patel


* Publisher: Springer
* Number Of Pages: 716
* Publication Date: 2008-11-30
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1848001509


Product Description:

This atlas features sequential pictures for most reconstructive urology procedures, also covering laparoscopic assisted procedures such as orthotopic neobladder and ileocystoplasty. Unlike many other titles covering this subject however, illustrations in the majority of chapters in this work are drawn purely from a single case, allowing the reader to chart such complex surgeries step-by-step.

Laparoscopic assisted procedures drastically reduce the operative time required, and those surgeons with moderate familiarity with urology and laparoscopic process should be able to complete these operations comfortably.

Though the use of advanced technology is described, the book has been constructed in such a way that urologists from both developed and developing countries would be able to pick up the technical tips featured to perform the laparoscopic procedures also using simplified devices.

This book also deals with some of the unusual situations or complications that the vastly experienced authors have personally faced in their careers to date, offering problem-solving tips and pitfalls to avoid, accompanied again by diagrams or photographs where appropriate.

La médecine nucléaire : La radioactivité au service du diagnostic et de la thérapie


La médecine nucléaire : La radioactivité au service du diagnostic et de la thérapie [French]
By Richard Zimmermann


* Publisher: EDP Sciences
* Number Of Pages: 171
* Publication Date: 2006-05-25
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 2868838650

La médecine nucléaire est une spécialité utilisant les propriétés de la radioactivité associée à une molécule médicamenteuse, un radiopharmaceutique, dans un but de diagnostic et de thérapie. Au cours des cinquante dernières années, la médecine nucléaire a évolué pour devenir un outil incontournable en milieu hospitalier. Cette technique permet aujourd'hui, non seulement de mieux voir et décrire la maladie, mais aussi de mieux la traiter. La cancérologie est la principale discipline concernée. Injectés au patient, les médicaments radiopharmaceutiques se dirigent sélectivement vers les cellules tumorales, y compris les métastases, s'y installent et émettent un rayonnement. Suivant son type, celui-ci permet, soit de visualiser ces cellules, soit de les détruire. Les améliorations récentes de cette technologie apportent de nouvelles perspectives dans le traitement des cancers mais également en hématologie et en neurologie. En parallèle, la médecine nucléaire a bénéficié, depuis le début de ce XXIe siècle, d'une double révolution technologique en matière d'imagerie. D'une part, la Tomographie par Émission de Positons (TEP) fait son entrée en force avec un médicament d'imagerie polyvalent, le FDG. D'autre part, un nouvel outil associant l'imagerie fonctionnelle à l'imagerie morphologique a été mis à disposition des médecins depuis peu. En présentant ces techniques et pratiques à un public plus large, cet ouvrage d'information scientifique met aussi l'accent sur les difficultés qu'il a fallu et qu'il faut encore surmonter pour que médecins et malades puissent y avoir accès. Il reste encore certains obstacles à franchir, mais ces progrès récents laissent entrevoir de nouveaux espoirs à court terme pour tous les malades.

Medical Decisions, Estrogen and Aging


Medical Decisions, Estrogen and Aging
By Jay Schulkin


* Publisher: Springer
* Number Of Pages: 178
* Publication Date: 2007-12-21
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1402066856


Product Description:
The decision making process that underlies ovarian hormone therapy (HT) is fallible. The question is whether or not physicians should suggest; should one take estrogen or progestin or some other combination of related hormones to women during the menopausal period, when women are deciding about whether to go on hormone therapy for diverse reasons. This decision affects many women in this country and around the world, and is an important factor serving to show what forces influence medical decision-making.

Two recent large-scale studies, one here (Women’s Health Initiative or WHI) and the other in Great Britain, cast a negative light on the use of hormone therapy. Both have received considerable attention in the media. Thus, the decision for women to go on hormone therapy (HT) remains controversial. There is an historical oscillation of beliefs related in part to expectations of the medicinal value of HT over longer-term use beyond the initial peri-menonpausal period. Studies thought to resolve issues surrounding the efficacy of HT were perhaps over-stated. Confusion still permeates the decision making with regard to HT. Over zealous advertising, and exaggerated understanding of the results (negative or positive) undermines patient and physician decision making.

Head and Neck Cancer, An Issue of PET Clinics


Head and Neck Cancer, An Issue of PET Clinics (The Clinics: Radiology)
By Todd M. Blodgett, Melanie B. Fukui


* Publisher: Saunders
* Number Of Pages: 240
* Publication Date: 2008-10-28
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1416053247


Product Description:

Over 47,000 cancers of the head and neck are diagnosed each year in the United States. Traditionally, CT and MRI have been the keystones for surgical and radiation therapy treatment planning; however, anatomic imaging relies on size and morphologic criteria for distinguishing benign from malignant lymph nodes. FDG-PET may be particularly helpful to distinguish post-treatment changes from recurrent tumor in the neck following surgery or radiation therapy. PET/CT imaging provides more accurate diagnosis, and even though evaluating PET/CT images of the neck can be challenging, these images can have a significant impact on patient management.

Cardiovascular MRI in Practice: A Teaching File Approach


Cardiovascular MRI in Practice: A Teaching File Approach
By John D. Grizzard, Robert M. Judd, Raymond J. Kim


* Publisher: Springer
* Number Of Pages: 304
* Publication Date: 2008-10-26
* ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1848000898

Product Description:
This book and DVD package represents a new and fundamentally different way of learning cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). The entire project is encoded on a single (dual-layer) DVD as a series of web pages that can be displayed offline in any web browser (eg. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari). Unlike previous CMR textbooks containing a few pre-selected views for each case, this book and DVD contains the entire scan for each of the 150 clinical cases (totalling more than 88,000 CMR images). Within each case, all the necessary tools to make the diagnosis are presented in exactly the same format as they are used every day at leading CMR clinical centers, including side-by-side movies, image magnification, single stepping, and even measurement tools (measurements require an internet connection). This format provides the student of CMR with the unprecedented opportunity to review all of the data and attempt to reach their own conclusion, and then reference an expert opinion simply by clicking on the "Case Discussion" web link.

The cases demonstrate the utility of CMR for the entire spectrum of cardiovascular pathology. Straightforward cases are presented, along with more unusual entities. The first few cases are designed to introduce the reader to the display format and to the techniques used in CMR, including the mechanics and nuances of image acquisition. The cases that then follow can be sorted by category (congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathies, etc) if desired, but are otherwise presented in a random format to allow readers to test themselves in interpreting "unknowns". In the initial presentation of the images, the histor
