  • Anatomie in Fällen - Schnitt und Bildgebung

    • 1st Edition
    • Markus Kipp + 2 more
    • German
    Anatomisches Verständnis = dreidimensionales Verständnis Die Verknüpfung von Anatomie und Bildgebung schult Ihr Verständnis für Dreidimensionalität auf besondere Art und Weise. Bildgebende Verfahren haben in den letzten Jahren in der medizinischen Diagnostik und Intervention enorm an Bedeutung dazugewonnen. Für den Studierenden besteht die Herausforderung der Zuordnung radiologischer Strukturen vor allem darin, die dreidimensionale Anatomie des Präpariersaals in die Zweidimensionalität der Schnittbildgebung zu ''übersetzen''. Anhand von 10 klinischen Fallbeispielen lernen Sie: - Schritt für Schritt, welche verschiedenen bildgebenden Verfahren es gibt, - wie Sie sich auch in komplizierten Bildgebungen ganz einfach orientieren können und - warum einmal die eine, einmal die andere Bildgebung zur Diagnose von verschiedenen Erkrankungen Verwendung findet. Durch die enge Verknüpfung zwischen Vorklinik und Klinik wird der neuen Approbationsordnung Rechnung getragen. Das besondere Plus: Praxis pur: via QR-Code zu erreichen gibt es zu einigen Fällen Videos, die die radiologischen Schnittbildfolgen zeigen. Das Sehen und Erkennen von Strukturen in radiologischen Bildern gehört in der späteren klinischen Praxis zum Alltag und ist unverzichtbar. Ideal für Medizinstudierende im vorklinischen und klinischen Studienabschnitt oder Reformstudiengang.

  • Soyez réhab

    Guide pratique de réhabilitation psychosociale
    • 1st Edition
    • Nicolas Rainteau
    • French
    Depuis quelques années maintenant, les termes de rétablissement et de réhabilitation psychosociale se sont fait une place de plus en plus grande dans le paysage de la psychiatrie. L’application de ces principes, le développement de nombreux outils et les changements de paradigme modifient un peu plus chaque jour la manière d’appréhender les collaborations avec les personnes atteintes de maladies psychiques et leurs proches. Se démarquant des nombreux ouvrages qui détaillent les concepts et les procédés thérapeutiques (remédiation cognitive, TCC, habiletés sociales, etc.), Soyez réhab illustre leur mise en pratique concrète avec l’envie simple de répondre à cette question : c’est quoi faire de la réhab au quotidien ?Véritable « mode d’emploi », cet ouvrage aborde les questions fondamentales de l’identité, de la coordination et de la prise en compte du positionnement de chaque protagoniste. Il donne les clés pour favoriser un environnement propice à l’espoir, à la demande d’aide et à la réalisation des projets. Invitation à la réflexion, il nous encourage à faire ce pas de côté qui nous fera ouvrir et choisir la bonne porte vers la collaboration. Enfin, il nous alerte sur les éventuels freins, organisations et phénomènes d’accommodation qui nous font faire fausse route.Très illustré et volontairement pratique, l’ouvrage aborde ces problématiques au travers d’analyse de vignettes exposant des situations de vie précises. Ainsi le lecteur peut s’exercer au fur et à mesure que les chapitres avancent.
