A comprehensive account of the most current basic and clinical science related to eye tumors, covering genetics, biochemistry, and immunological studies. It discusses the current status of clinical trials, risk and prognostic factors associated with eye tumors, and findings from studies using animal models to assess the efficacy of novel treatments.
This book details the examination techniques, classification, differential diagnosis, and specific pathology and management of tumors affecting the conjunctiva, including benign epithelial and melanocytic tumors, Ocular Surface Squamous Neoplasia (OSSN), Primary Acquired Melanosis (PAM), Conjunctival Melanoma, and stromal tumors.
The IIRC is the standardized staging system used globally for retinoblastoma contained within the eye(s), replacing the Reese-Ellsworth Classification. Developed by Dr. Murphree, the system ranges from Group A (lowest risk, predicting better outcomes) to Group E (highest risk/poor prognosis features), detailing criteria based on tumor size, location, and the presence and extent of vitreous or subretinal seeding.
A foundational text covering the structure and organization of the Nervous System (CNS and PNS). Topics include divisions (Somatic, Autonomic), functions of the nervous system, detailed structure and parts of the neuron (dendrites, axon, cell body, myelin), and classification schemes for neurons based on poles (unipolar, bipolar, multipolar) and function (motor, sensory). Also defines gray and white matter, tracts, and nerves.
A comprehensive guide detailing the surgical technique of phacoemulsification for cataract treatment, presented in a step-by-step format for practitioners.
This book details the integration of digital technologies, such as CBCT and CAD/CAM, in surgical dental treatments. It provides guidance on improving accuracy and predictability in implant procedures, covering the process from initial treatment planning to the execution of guided surgery, and emphasizes the benefit of reduced patient morbidity.
