This is the first work to take a comprehensive look at the
application of Magnetic Resonance (MR) techniques in the diagnosis,
follow-up and therapy monitoring of dementing illnesses. The
authors present an overview of MR findings in neurodegenerative and
vascular disorders leading to dementia. In doing so, they also
discuss other diseases that lead to cognitive and/or behavioural
deterioration, such as infectious inflammatory disorders, toxic
encephalopathies, inborn errors of metabolism of adult onset and
post-traumatic, post-radiotherapy and post-chemotherapy conditions.
This authoritative, well-written and richly illustrated reference
work is indispensable for anybody working in the field.
This issue of Medical Clinics covers the important advances
surrounding the early intervention of Alzheimer's Disease. Guest
edited by world-renowned experts from around the world, the topics
covered will include evaluation of new diagnostic criteria, CSF
biomarkers, diagnostic imaging, neurocognitive approaches, breaking
clinical trials and more.
This up-to-date, superbly illustrated book is a practical guide to
the effective use of neuroimaging in the patient with cognitive
decline. It sets out the key clinical and imaging features of the
various causes of dementia and directs the reader from clinical
presentation to neuroimaging and on to an accurate diagnosis
whenever possible. After an introductory chapter on the clinical
background, the available "toolbox" of structural and functional
neuroimaging techniques is reviewed in detail, including CT, MRI
and advanced MR techniques, SPECT and PET, and image analysis
methods. The imaging findings in normal ageing are then discussed,
followed by a series of chapters that carefully present and analyze
the key findings in patients with dementias. Throughout, a
practical approach is adopted, geared specifically to the needs of
clinicians (neurologists, radiologists, psychiatrists,
geriatricians) working in the field of dementia, for whom this book
will prove an invaluable resource.
