Brain Mapping The Disorders

This comprehensive text is the first to describe the uses of the latest brain mapping technologies in evaluations of patients with neurological, neurosurgical, and psychiatric disorders. With contributions from the leading figures in the field, this heavily illustrated text is organized according to disorders of brain systems, with specific examples of how to use current neuroimaging techniques to evaluate patients with specific cerebral disorders. Comprehensive in scope, the text discusses patient evaluations using the wide range of modern magnetic resonance imaging techniques, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computer tomography, optical intrinsic signal imaging, electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, and transcranial magnetic stimulation. The third in this brain mapping series, Brain Mapping: The Disorders is the ultimate text for anyone interested in the use of brain mapping techniques to study patients with disorders of the central nervous system.Mazziotta, John C. is the author of 'Brain Mapping The Disorders' with ISBN 9780124814608 and ISBN 0124814603.
