Musica e cervello. Mito e scienza
Antonio Montinaro
editore: Editori Vari
pagine: 158
Questo saggio vuol essere una sintesi di quanto le Neuroscienze offrono costantemente alla nostra attenzione sull'affascinante rapporto Musica-Cervello. L'esplorazione di un percorso millenario che dal Mito conduce alla Scienza è una sfida che abbiamo cercato di affrontare con umiltà e amore. L'amore che deriva da una semplice e provvidenziale consuetudine: l'ascolto! I numerosi approfonditi studi funzionali, corredati da splendide neuroimmagini, hanno modificato profondamente negli ultimi 20 anni l'approccio ad un tema che la ricerca oggi può condurre con una strumentazione sempre più sofisticata. Ugualmente la musicoterapia, anche se con difficoltà, si va affermando come accettata terapia di supporto, mentre già Novalis asseriva: "Ogni malattia ha una soluzione musicale. Maggiore è il talento musicale del medico, tanto più breve e completa è la soluzione". Di tutto ciò viene offerta in queste pagine una documentata esplorazione, frutto di una allegata ricerca bibliografica che può rappresentare il punto di partenza per ulteriori approfondimenti.

Atlas of Functional Neuroanatomy
Walter Hendelman
editore: CRC Press Inc
pagine: 325
Understanding how the brain is organized and visualizing its pathways and connections can be conceptually challenging. The Atlas of Functional Neuroanatomy, Third Edition addresses this challenge by presenting a clear visual guide to the human central nervous system (CNS). This edition has been completely reorganized to facilitate learning the structure and function of the CNS. The material is suitable for medical students, non-neurology residents, and other health professionals who seek a solid understanding of the brain. This edition: * Presents an instructive format that fosters a thorough understanding of complex neuroanatomy, emphasizing the functional perspective and supplemented with clinical aspects * Incorporates enhanced illustrations, retaining the selective labeling of the nuclei and tracts (pathways) * Includes new material explaining the visual system, meninges, venous system, and limbic system * Features a substantial increase in the number of neuroradiological (CT and MRI) images An accompanying Web site (www.atlasbrain.com) includes the book's illustrations along with rollover labeling, animation of the pathways and connections, a glossary, and narrated video demonstrations of the brain.

A Video Atlas of Neuromuscular Disorders
Aziz Shaibani
editore: Oxford University Press Inc
pagine: 664
The first real cases video atlas of neuromuscular disorders that is supplemented with multiple-choice questions, and updates on the illustrated topics. It is easy to search and read. It is perfect for preparation to the neurology and neuromuscular boards and an excellent way to update the experts. By replacing the descriptive text with vivid illustrative videos, the reader will have more time to face the intellectual challenges of these cases instead of trying to build a mental picture of these cases first. Short and well-edited video clips from real clinic stories supplemented with challenging multiple choice questions, provides an excellent way to bridge the gap between overflow of information and short attention span. The chapters are arranged according the symptoms instead of diseases, yet, diseases are listed in the index if one wants to see all videos relevant to a specific disease. Close to 300 video cases taken directly from a real neuromuscular clinic, illustrating a myriad of disorders and shedding light on their diagnosis, and treatment and giving updates about many of them provides an invaluable approach that should benefit any one who is interested in neuromuscular disorders which comprises more than 50% of presenting disease to general neurologists and even to general practitioners. Some rare diseases are also described, giving an opportunity for the new trainees to see them so that they can diagnosed them if they see them again which may not happen very often.

Movement Disorders in Neurologic and Systemic Disease
Joseph Jankovic , Werner Poewe
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 471
Movement disorders - ranging from parkinsonism to a variety of hyperkinetic disorders, such as tremors, dystonic, chorea and myoclonus - can be the presenting or a prominent clinical feature in a broad spectrum of systemic conditions such as endocrine and metabolic disorders, autoimmune diseases, infections, intoxications, tumors and pareneoplastic syndromes, stroke and multiple sclerosis. The resulting clinical scenarios can be confusing and difficult to interpret by internists, generalists and neurologists. Movement Disorders in Neurologic and Systemic Disease provides comprehensive coverage of the most common movement disorders seen in systemic and general neurologic disease, as well as differential diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms. The chapters are written by internationally recognized experts and more than 50 illustrative videos highlight the phenomenology of some of the movement disorders and provide a useful 'bed-side' diagnostic tool. This book is a valuable resource for neurologists, physiatrists, psychiatrists, internists, primary care physicians and trainees in medicine and neurology.

Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders

Ivan Donaldson
e altri
editore: Oxford University Press
pagine: 1512
This book represents the final work of the late Professor C. David Marsden, who was the most influential figure in the field of movement disorders, in terms of his contributions to both research and clinical practice, in the modern era. It was conceived and written by David Marsden and his colleague at the Institute of Neurology, Prof. Ivan Donaldson. It was their intention that this would be the most comprehensive book on movement disorders and also that it would serve as the 'clinical Bible' for the management of these conditions. It provides a masterly survey of the entire topic, which has been made possible only by vast laboratory and bedside experience. Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders covers the full breadth of movement disorders, from the underlying anatomy and understanding of basal ganglia function to the diagnosis and management of specific movement disorders, including the more common conditions such as Parkinson's Disease through to rare, and very rare conditions such as Niemann-Pick disease. Chapters follow a structured format with historical overviews, definitions, clinical features, differential diagnosis, investigations and treatment covered in a structured way. It is extensively illustrated with many original photographs and diagrams of historical significance. Among these illustrations are still images of some original film clips of some of Dr. Marsden's patients published here for the first time. Comprehensively referenced and updated by experts from the Institute of Neurology at Queen Square, this book is a valuable reference for, not just movement disorder specialists and researchers, but also for clinicians who care for patients with movement disorders.
