  • Imaging of White Matter, An Issue of Radiologic Clinics of North America

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 52-2
    • Sangam Kanekar
    • English
    White matter lesions have been always challenging for general as well as neuroradiologits. Any disease process in the brain or body can affect white matter, making it very difficult to pinpoint the diagnosis. However the application of the proper algorithmic approach, pattern of distribution, and study of the morphology of these lesions makes it possible to limit the differential diagnosis and, many times, pinpoint specific diagnosis. Advancement of various imaging techniques predominately in MR (MR spectroscopy, MR perfusion, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). functional MR) along with PET has further improved our understanding of these disease processes. However, most of these techniques are new and not well understood by every physician. This issue will cover the topics necessary to master these techniques.

  • Diabétologie

    Trois ans se sont écoulés depuis l'édition de la première version de cet ouvrage consacré au diabète sucré, maladie dont la fréquence ne cesse d'augmenter et dont le traitement devient de plus en plus complexe. Pour tenir compte de l'évolution des idées, plusieurs chapitres ont été actualisés ou rajoutés. Comme dans la première édition, nous avons particulièrement insisté sur les aspects pratiques de la prise en charge et les nouvelles méthodes d'exploration, de suivi et de traitement. Ce dernier a bénéficié des avancées scientifiques des trois dernières décennies : développement de l'autosurveillance glycémique, de l'enregistrement glycémique continu et mise sur le marché de nouvelles classes thérapeutiques qui ont conduit à renforcer notre arsenal thérapeutique. Les traitements par infusion insulinique continue n'ont cessé de progresser et ils ont contribué à l'amélioration globale de l'équilibre glycémique des diabétiques de type 1. Les nouvelles recommandations diagnostiques et thérapeutiques ont été développées de manière didactique en essayant de les insérer dans le continuum de la longue histoire du diabète sucré. Ainsi, cet ouvrage s'adresse à l'ensemble des professionnels de santé concernés par la prise en charge des patients diabétiques.

  • La psychothérapie : approches comparées par la pratique

    • 1st Edition
    • Charles-Edouard Rengade + 1 more
    • French
    Cet ouvrage apporte un éclairage nouveau et différent sur la pratique de la psychothérapie et propose une aide efficace au praticien en lui offrant de travailler sur des cas cliniques tirés de l'exercice au quotidien. Les auteurs, tous deux psychiatres, l'un d'orientation psychanalytique, éclectique et intégrative, et l'autre cognitvo-comportemen... confrontent leur approche du patient. Ainsi, de l'entretien clinique à la mise en place de solutions thérapeutiques, iIs soulèvent les questions fondamentales auxquelles sont confrontés les psychothérapeutes. En effet chaque cas part d'une rencontre avec un patient et détaille un point de difficulté précis selon différents angles théoriques, en particulier psychanalytique ou cognitif et comportemental, de manière claire et didactique, pour proposer des solutions directement applicables dans la pratique quotidienne. Cette démarche incite le lecteur à réfléchir à sa pratique personnelle ou aux efforts de mise en pratique en répondant à ces questions, puis à confronter ses propres tentatives de réponse à la conceptualisation et à l'argumentation proposée par les auteurs. Destiné aux psychothérapeutes, cet ouvrage constitue un outil clair et pédagogique, qui apporte des réponses concrètes au quotidien du thérapeute.
