Interventional and Endovascular Therapy of the Nervous System - A Practical Guide (Hardcover, 2002 ed.)

The field of interventional neuroradiology has expanded greatly in recent years, shifting emphasis onto neuroendovascular methods that, increasingly, have become the standard in modern treatment. This shift has placed a demand on hospitals to provide a standard of care for which many busy clinicians have not been trained. Dr. Pearse Morris has written a timely and comprehensive reference for those who are interested in expanding their knowledge of neuroendovascular procedures, but have not had a specialized neuroradiology fellowship. The emphasis throughout is on patient safety and the outcome of various treatments. Topics covered in this volume include: Platelets and coagulation basic techniques, devices, and arterioty closure aneurysms extracranial angioplasty and stenting endovascular treatment of vasospasm dural arteriovenous malformations carotid cavernous fistulas balloon test occlusion and post-occlusion patient care spine and vertebroplasty tumor embolization thrombolysis and treatment of acute stroke venous thrombotic disease arteriovenous malformations of the brain Neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, and neurologists will find this reference a much needed and practical asset to both their education and updating their practices.
