    • 1st Edition
    • Helmut Hildebrandt + 2 more
    • English
    Applied Neuropsychology of Cerebrovascular Diseases: A Practical Guide to Brain Arteries, Lesion Localization, and Rehabilitation Strategies addresses the critical intersection of vascular neurology and neuropsychological rehabilitation. With stroke as the third leading cause of death worldwide, neuropsychologists must understand stroke patterns and functional consequences for patients undergoing neurorehabilitation. This book explores the pathophysiology of stroke, emphasizing the importance of cerebrovascular anatomy and lesion localization in understanding cognitive deficits. It provides essential knowledge for clinicians involved in stroke assessment and treatment, highlighting the need for integration of neuroimaging interpretation into neuropsychological practice. Written by leading clinical neuropsychologists, this volume is structured into three key sections. The first offers foundational insights into cerebrovascular anatomy, stroke mechanisms, and their typical cognitive and emotional impairments. The second section equips clinicians with practical skills to interpret brain scans independently, utilizing tools like MRIcron, and to localize lesions accurately. The final section focuses on targeted rehabilitation strategies for common stroke syndromes, including neglect, aphasia, visual field deficits, and disorders of consciousness, supported by real-world clinical guidance and emerging neuromodulation techniques such as tDCS. Applied Neuropsychology of Cerebrovascular Diseases: A Practical Guide to Brain Arteries, Lesion Localization, and Rehabilitation Strategies enhances clinical decision-making by bridging the gap between neuroimaging, neuroanatomy, and practical therapy. It aims to improve assessment accuracy, optimize intervention timing, and foster a patient-centered approach to neurocognitive recovery. Its detailed yet accessible presentation makes it an indispensable resource for neuropsychologists, neurologists, and rehabilitation specialists seeking to advance their understanding of cerebrovascular impacts on cognition and functional recovery.

  • Behavioral Biometrics and Artificial Intelligence for Neurodegenerative Diseases Assessment

    • 1st Edition
    • Vincenzo Dentamaro + 2 more
    • English
    Behavioral Biometrics and Artificial Intelligence for Neurodegenerative Diseases Assessment explores cutting-edge, non-invasive techniques for the early detection of neurodegenerative diseases. The book focuses on behavioral biometrics, which analyzes patterns in a person’s actions rather than directly measurable traits. By utilizing artificial intelligence methods—like machine learning and deep neural networks—it enables the observation of subtle changes in gait, handwriting, and speech. These advanced approaches offer promise for earlier and more accurate diagnosis, potentially improving outcomes for millions affected by conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases through timely intervention and personalized care.In addition to its core coverage, the book delves into the practical applications of wearable sensors and the use of everyday devices like smartphones and tablets in assessments. It provides comprehensive chapters on how these technologies can aid clinicians and researchers in monitoring disease progression outside traditional clinical settings.

  • Computational and Network Modeling of Neuroimaging Data

    • 1st Edition
    • Kendrick Kay
    • English
    Computational and Network Modeling of Neuroimaging Data provides an authoritative and comprehensive overview of the many diverse modeling approaches that have been fruitfully applied to neuroimaging data. As neuroimaging is witnessing a massive increase in the quality and quantity of data being acquired, this book gives an accessible foundation to the field of computational neuroimaging, suitable for graduate students, academic researchers, and industry practitioners who are interested in adopting or applying model-based approaches in neuroimaging.It is widely recognized that effective interpretation and extraction of information from complex data requires quantitative modeling. However, modeling the brain comes in many diverse forms, with different research communities tackling different brain systems, different spatial and temporal scales, and different aspects of brain structure and function. This book takes a critical step towards synthesizing and integrating across different modeling approaches.

  • Brain Responses to Auditory Mismatch and Novelty Detection

    Predictive Coding from Cocktail Parties to Auditory-Related Disorders
    • 1st Edition
    • Jos J. Eggermont
    • English
    Brain Responses to Auditory Mismatch and Novelty Detection: Predictive Coding from Cocktail Parties to Auditory-Related Disorders provides the connections between changes in the ‘error-generating network’ and disorder-specific changes while also exploring its diagnostic properties. The book allows the reader to appreciate the outcomes of predictive coding theory in fields of auditory streaming (including the cocktail-party effect) and psychiatric disorders with an auditory component. These include mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer’s disease, attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia and the cognitive aspects of Parkinson’s disease. The book combines animal experiments on adaptation, human auditory evoked potentials, including MMN and their maturational, as well as aging aspects into one comprehensive resource.

  • Neuroimaging Atlas of the Human Brain

    MRI, DTI, and Histology
    • 1st Edition
    • Jacopo Annese
    • English
    The field of human brain mapping is exhibiting an increased focus on the study of neural functional architecture at the system level and on individual neurological characteristics. rather than pm population-based averages. This new direction has resulted in a need for a new brain atlas that incorporates correlated radiologic and histological images representing the whole brain. Initiatives such as the Human Connectome Project are based on non-invasive techniques that afford images of the brain only at the macroscopic level, creating a growing need for an atlas that provides histological images of entire (coronal) sections that can then be easily compared to corresponding MRI and DTI images, making the correlation across modalities direct and intuitive. Neuroimaging Atlas of the Human Brain: MRI, DTI, and Histology is just such an atlas, representing the first market offering of histologic, radiologic, and labeled anatomical images of the same, entire human brain.
