A classic foundational text providing a comprehensive and detailed account of the structure, function, and clinical correlations of the central nervous system, covering pathways, nuclei, and tracts.
A manual detailing techniques for the assessment and treatment of nerve entrapment syndromes, including mobilization exercises and techniques for the upper body (nerve root stretch, scalene, radial, ulnar, median nerve entrapments) and lower body (lumbar, piriformis, sciatic nerve mobilizations).
A foundational text introducing the twelve pairs of cranial nerves. It details their functional components, including comprehensive classification into somatic, visceral, afferent, and efferent fibers (GSE, SVE, GVE, GSA, GVA, SVA). The text provides a comprehensive overview of the anatomy, course, and clinical testing of the Olfactory Nerve (I), including common clinical findings like Anosmia, and introduces the Optic Nerve (II).
A comprehensive introductory guide detailing the organization of the nervous system, including the CNS and PNS divisions, the structure and function of neurons and neuroglial cells, the role of meninges and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and an overview of major brain structures like the Cerebrum and Cerebellum.
A comprehensive clinical textbook covering the structure, organization, and function of the human nervous system, emphasizing anatomical detail for medical students and practitioners.
A collection of multiple-choice questions designed for 5th-semester medical students covering the microanatomy and cellular components of the central nervous system, neuroglia, ganglia, myelination, and special sense organs.
Detailed analysis of the Abducent (CN VI) and Trigeminal (CN V) nerves. This section covers their purely motor or mixed functional components, unique features, anatomical course through structures like Dorello's Canal and the Cavernous Sinus, and associated nuclei. Clinical topics include susceptibility of CN VI to increased intracranial pressure, leading to convergent squint and diplopia.
This book examines advanced computational approaches and imaging modalities, such as wavelet recurrent neural networks and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI), applied to the detection, classification, and diagnosis of lung cancer.
An advanced volume focused on the structure and physics of viruses. It is part of the Subcellular Biochemistry series, providing an integrated guide to emerging topics in Cell Biology and related molecular subjects.
A focused manual covering critical, time-sensitive orthopaedic conditions encountered in the emergency department. Topics include management of unstable pelvic fractures, traumatic amputations, open fractures, fractures with vascular injuries, septic joints, and compartment syndrome, designed for use by medical students, physicians, PAs, and NPs.
The ability to accurately assess patients is vital to the practice of Dental Hygiene. This guide takes readers through the process of patient assessment, providing information on physical assessment and effective patient communication. It utilizes a highly visual, step-by-step style to teach vital assessment processes quickly and thoroughly, including detailed, full-color illustrations and photographs to visually guide through procedures and techniques.
Analysis of corneal geometry and geography, focusing on optical properties, power, slope, and shape. It covers the differentiation between topography (Placido-based devices) and tomography (Scheimpflug/Slit-scanning devices) and aims to build skills for interpreting maps and data, which is critical for good refractive surgery outcomes and the early detection of ectatic corneal disorders and Keratoconus classification.
A comprehensive text on the primary repair of congenital cleft lip and palate, recognized as the most common cranio-maxillo-facial birth defect. The book details surgical techniques and morphology correction, featuring 441 figures, 406 of which are in color.
This guideline provides evidence-based recommendations, developed using the GRADE methodology, for the management of adult patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Recommendations cover mechanical ventilation strategies (low tidal volume, PEEP), prone positioning, conservative fluid management, use of neuromuscular blocking agents, and criteria for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
A comprehensive reference guide detailing normal anatomical and physiological values for various structures of the human eye, including dimensions of the eyeball, cornea, sclera, lens, retina, optic disc, and measurements of intraocular pressure and refractive indices.
A comprehensive handbook exploring the concept of the human essence, focusing on subjects such as existential psychology and social psychology, published as part of the Oxford Library of Psychology series.
