This volume is a compilation of papers presented at the Tenth
International Symposium on Brain Edema held on October 20-23, 1996,
in San Diego, California. This follows the sequence of meetings
that was initiated 31 years ago in the First International
Symposium held in Vienna. Subsequent symposiums were held in Mainz,
Montreal, Berlin, Groningen, Tokyo, Baltimore, Bern, and Tokyo CY
okohama). A considerable number of papers was chosen from over 100
papers that were received. The organizers wish to thank the
Advisory Committee for the excellent work done in selection of the
papers. We also wish to thank all the persons who contributed to
the success of the Tenth International Symposium, especially the
staff who worked behind the scenes. These papers were reviewed,
edited, approved or disapproved by the Editorial Board. Those
manuscripts that were felt not pertinent to this publication were
not accepted by the Editorial Board. Therefore, the excellent
quality of those that are in the book are a reflection of the
authors' dedication and work and that of those of the Editorial
Board in their review process. For the reader's convenience, the
papers are structured according to the various disease processes
which are associated with the primary topic: hypertension,
hydrocephalus, infection, ischemia, tumor, etc. We do hope that the
reader will enjoy the articles and that they will provide an
impetus and insight for future work.

Brain edema is found in a wide variety of clinical disorders
including stroke, intracerebral haemorrhage, subarachnoid
haemorrhage, head injury, brain tumors and hydrocephalus. This
volume brings together clinical and basic scientists from all over
the world. Their expertise in the understanding of brain edema and
shifts in brain water compartments has led to a further significant
step in our understanding of those diseases characterized by brain
edema. This book has also drawn on the expertise of the
International Advisory Board of the Brain Edema Society, who have
carefully summarized each section, thus providing an easy-to-read
summary of the latest advances in each subject. The book is
therefore much more than a collection of papers: it represents a
critical appraisal and puts each paper into modern scientific
context. The greatest advances have come from the rapid development
of modern imaging techniques, especially with magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI). Imaging can now produce "water maps" and "metabolic
profiles" that bring brain metabolism and water content right into
every clinic with access to MRI. This book provides the background
knowledge to understand these pathophysiological changes.
