Description

The most comprehensive, state-of-the-art guide available on the use of botulinum neurotoxin for head & neck disorders!Senior author Andrew Blitzer is an internationally renowned pioneer on the use of botulinum neurotoxin for functional disorders, with unparalleled expertise on this topic. Joined by esteemed co-editors Brian Benson and Diana Kirke, with multidisciplinary contributors, Botulinum Neurotoxin for Head and Neck Disorders Second Edition fills a gap in the medical literature. The unique textbook focuses on the use of botulinum neurotoxins for functional disorders of the head and neck, though with some aesthetic indications. The second edition reflects the latest advances and understanding of existing and emerging applications for botulinum neurotoxins, including new treatment paradigms, revised pharmacology, and an updated review of the literature in all chapters.Twenty superbly illustrated chapters cover the management of hyperfunctional, pain, and hypersecretory syndromes of the head and neck. Hyperfunctional motor disorders are discussed in chapters focused on blepharospasm, facial dystonia, Meige syndrome, oromandibular dystonia, spasmodic dysphonia (laryngeal dystonia), and cervical dystonia. Specific treatment approaches for pain are addressed in chapters on migraine and chronic daily tension headaches, temporomandibular disorders, and trigeminal neuralgia. The treatment of autonomic nervous system disorders is covered in chapters dedicated to Frey syndrome, facial hyperhydrosis, and sialorrhea.Key FeaturesA 30-year review of spasmodic dysphonia data includes new insights encompassing comprehensive treatment, management and outcomes results, and neuropathophysiologyA new chapter details the emerging role of botulinum neurotoxin to treat radiation-induced spasm and painUpdates on the management of palatal myoclonus, temporomandibular joint disorder, and sialorrheaAn impressive compendium of professional injection videos, including a new video on sialorrhea and an updated migraine videoClinical pearls throughout the book focus on best practices, how to avoid pitfalls, and achieving the most optimal outcomesThis is a must-have resource for otolaryngologists–head and neck surgeons, neurologists, dentists, pain specialists, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists, and others health professionals who use botulinum neurotoxin to treat motor, sensory, and autonomic disorders of the head and neck region.This book includes complimentary access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.

150 ECG Problems 3rd Edition (2008) by John Hampton DM MA DPhil FRCP FFPM FESC PDF

  • Published: 2008
  • Number of pages: 324 pages
  • Format: PDF
  • File Size: 15.71 MB
  • Authors: John Hampton DM MA DPhil FRCP FFPM FESC

Description

This book offers 150 12-lead ECGs and rhythm strips, each with a clinical case history and question. The full ECG is reproduced and a study of it with the case history should be enough to give an answer. On the back the case is examined, with a description of the main features of the ECG along with a clinical interpretation and a “what to do” section. The cases are graded in difficulty.The unique page size allows presentation of all 12-lead ECGs across a single page for clarity.Several of the cases incorporate chest X-rays and coronary angiograms illustrating the appearances that are associated with various cardiac conditions.All the cases are graded in difficulty and are cross-referenced to the new editions of ECG Made Easy and ECG in Practice for further information.For this Fourth Edition over 30 new ECGs have been included, mainly to provide clearer examples, though the book deliberately retains some technically poor records to maintain a ’real-world’ perspective.

Description

For the first time, in this atlas nuclear physicians and radiologists cover the entire hybrid nuclear medicine (PET/CT, SPECT/CT and PET/MRI), based on their own case studies. The structure in three volumes represents an user friendly guide for interpreting PET and SPECT in relation to co-registered CT and/or MRI. Three companion volumes with a practical structure in two-page unit offer to the reader a navigational tool, based on anatomical districts, with labeled and explained low-dose multiplanar CT or MRI views merged with PET fusion imaging on the right hand and contrast enhanced CT or MRI on the other side. This new format enables rapid identification of hybrid nuclear medicine findings which are now routine at leading medical centers. Volume 1 is focused on brain and neck PET imaging, with emphasis on PET/MRI; Volume 2 concerns thorax, abdomen and pelvis, with particular attention on lung and liver segmental anatomy and evaluation of peritoneum. Special chapters on heart, lymph nodes and musculoskeletal system, are collected in the Volume 3. Each chapter begins with three-dimensional CT and/or MRI views of the evaluated anatomical region, bringing forward sectional tables. Clinical cases, tricks and pitfalls linked to several PET or SPECT radiopharmaceuticals help to introduce the reader to peculiar molecular pathways and to improve confidence in cross-sectional imaging, that is vital for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Compact, comprehensive, easy to read guide to sectional imaging and multiplanar evaluation of hybrid PET and SPECTIncludes 856 fully colored, labeled, high quality original images of axial, coronal and sagittal CT, contrast enhanced CT, PET/CT and/or PET/MRIDisplays 200 clinical cases, showcasing both common and unusual findings that nuclear physicians and radiologists could encounter in their clinical practiceCostant orthogonal references on 3D images allow orientation on axial, coronal and sagittal viewsPeculiar aspects of 18 PET and SPECT radiopharmaceuticals, defined by distinctive color scalesTerms and descriptions mostly based on Terminologia AnatomicaSpecific text boxes explain anatomical variants, radiological advices and physiological findings linked to tracer bio-distributionSupports interpretation and report of hybrid nuclear medicine scansFor professionals and vocationals

  • File Size: 24.76 MB

Description

This book covers the normal anatomy of the human body as seen in the entire gamut of medical imaging. It does so by an initial traditional anatomical description of each organ or system followed by the radiological anatomy of that part of the body using all the relevant imaging modalities. The third edition addresses the anatomy of new imaging techniques including three-dimensional CT, cardiac CT, and CT and MR angiography as well as the anatomy of therapeutic interventional radiological techniques guided by fluoroscopy, ultrasound, CT and MR. The text has been completely revised and over 140 new images, including some in colour, have been added. A series of ‘imaging pearls’ have been included with most sections to emphasise clinically and radiologically important points. The book is primarily aimed at those training in radiology and preparing for the FRCR examinations, but will be of use to all radiologists and radiographers both in training and in practice, and to medical students, physicians and surgeons and all who use imaging as a vital part of patient care. The third edition brings the basics of radiological anatomy to a new generation of radiologists in an ever-changing world of imaging.This book covers the normal anatomy of the human body as seen in the entire gamut of medical imaging.
