Owing to the increased interest in brain ischemia and the new therapeutic options from pharmaceutical companies for the treatment of acute stroke, Professor Julien Bogousslavsky, one of the world's stroke experts, has revised his best-selling book. It is the emergence of huge possibilities in the management of stroke - ultra-early diagnosis, intensive care, surgical and other interventional therapies, thrombolysis, anti-ischemic drugs and prevention of immediate recurrence - which necessiates this timely update.
Primer on Cerebrovascular Diseases is a handy reference source for scientists, students, and physicians needing reliable, up-to-date information on basic mechanisms, physiology, pathophysiology, and medical issues related to brain vasculature. The book consists of short, specific chapters written by international experts on cerebral vasculature, and presents the information in a comprehensive and easily accessible manner. The book also contains valuable information on practical applications of basic research. Presents topics in a comprehensive and accessible format Written by international authorities on cerebral vasculature Provides practical applications for researchers
This volume provides an in-depth review of the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in ischemic brain damage. The book features contributions from more than 100 leading international authorities in all relevant clinical and basic science disciplines. These experts synthesize the latest findings on molecular events that play a key role in neuronal cell death or in neuroprotection after ischemia. This volume is an essential resource for all physicians treating stroke and for researchers investigating the molecular pathology of ischemic brain damage. The book is also a valuable source of promising new ideas of pharmacologists developing anti-ischemic drugs for treatment of stroke.
Aims to define the subject of microcirculatory stasis and thus give a better understanding of ischemic tissue damage. The work covers four major themes: blood events, vessel changes, feedback from ischemically damaged tissue, and clinical relevance.
This book, which contains chapters by more than 29 internationally recognized authorities who have made major contributions to neurotherapeutics, tells the stories of how new treatments for disabling disorders of the nervous system, such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and migraine, were developed, and explores evolving themes and technologies that offer hope for even more effective treatments and ultimately cures for currently untreatable disorders of the brain and spinal cord.
The Nineteenth Princeton Conference on Cerebrovascular Disease provided a unique forum for national and international experts to present and discuss state-of-the-art research in the field of stroke. The Conference was hosted by the Massachusetts General Hospital and held in Boston in 1994.
