La grande originalité de cet ouvrage, écrit pour aider la réalisation et l’interprétation des IRM neuroradiologiques, repose sur son approche sémiologique et thématique. Elle le distingue des livres classiques présentant les pathologies par rubriques séparées, obligeant le radiologue à savoir à l’avance à laquelle appartiennent les lésions.Ce livre facilite la compréhension des techniques avancées devenues usuelles, comme par exemple la perfusion, les angiographies dynamiques ou la spectro RM, séquences indispensables au bilan de nombreuses pathologies du système nerveux central.Facile à consulter, avec une iconographie riche et récente, il présente deux parties ; encéphale d’une part, moelle et rachis d’autre part, avec le même plan d’analyse :• comment réaliser une IRM ;• sémiologie élémentaire ;• orientation diagnostique en fonction des caractéristiques des images.En fin d’ouvrage, de courts chapitres regroupent les éléments indispensables à la connaissance des territoires vasculaires et de pathologies intéressantes soit par leur fréquence, comme les inflammations de la substance blanche, soit par leur relative complexité comme les maladies dégénératives, ou les affections rares du système nerveux central.Ce livre s’adresse aux radiologues généralistes, et aux neuroradiologues en formation, désireux d’apprendre la sémiologie IRM neuroradiologique et constitue un outil précieux du DPC. Les manipulateurs y trouveront de précieuses informations sur la réalisation pratique des examens. Il devrait intéresser aussi les cliniciens prescripteurs d’IRM du système nerveux central, en particulier neurologues et neurochirurgiens, qu’il aidera à mieux comprendre les images et les comptes-rendus.Pour cette 3ème édition, en plus du contenu et de l’iconographie entièrement actualisés avec les dernières recommandations des sociétés savantes, cet ouvrage s’accompagne d’une banque d’images en ligne qui vous permet de visualiser + de 900 iconographies.

**Selected for Doody’s Core Titles® 2024 in Neuroscience**MRI/DTI Atlas of the Human Brainstem in Transverse and Sagittal Planes presents a detailed view of the human brainstem in DTI/MRI. It is the first ever MRI or histological atlas to present detailed diagrams of sagittal views of the brainstem. Presenting data of unprecedented quality, images are juxtaposed with detailed diagrams in the transverse and sagittal planes. The atlas features a 50 micron resolution for the GRE and 200 microns for the FAC and DWI, 8000 times higher than that seen in a clinical MRI and 1000 times higher than that seen in a clinical DTI scan, all based on one brain.This atlas is important for neuroscientists, neurosurgeons, pathologists, anatomists, neurophysiologists, radiologists, radiotherapists (e.g., for cyberknife guidance), and graduate students in neuroscience.

Precision Medicine in Neurodegenerative Disorders, Part Two, Volume 193  in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology deals with the "How" in the reconfiguration of our approach to slow accelerated brain aging. The book rethinks  animal models on which therapies are tested, outlines the progress and expected changes in biological subtyping efforts using lysosomal, endosomal, mitochondrial, immune dysregulation, and inflammatory mechanisms of disease pathophysiology, and the growing role of microbiome in shaping disease. The volume separates the potentially disease-modifying neurorescue and neurorestoration, (e.g., gene therapy and cell replacement therapy) from true precision "medicine"–matching biology with the mechanism of intervention of interest. Specific chapters are dedicated to the promise and challenges of extracellular vesicles for both diagnosis and treatment, the growing application of digital measures and other evaluations of clinical response, the nuts and bolts of novel adaptive clinical trial designs, and the regulatory changes needed to facilitate drug development for disease-modification purposes.

    9 7 8 - 0 - 3 2 3 - 9 0 0 6 4 - 5
Precision Medicine in Neurodegenerative Disorders, Part One, Volume 192 in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology deals with the "Why" in the approach to slow the progression of accelerated brain aging. This volume is intended to provide a scholarly background on the framework, basic science and conceptual pitfalls related to disease-modifying efforts in Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative disorders. Among topics covered are different models of precision medicine, the lumping-versus-splitting tension in biomarker development and therapeutics, and the rationale for replacing the convergence of the prevailing autopsy-based nosology of neurodegenerative diseases with the divergence of a systems biology approach to human diseases. Specific chapters are dedicated to the promise of genetic subtypes and the lessons in disease modification offered by the fields of oncology and cystic fibrosis that can be adapted to the field of neurodegeneration. Matching a biology-correcting therapy with those biologically suitable to benefit from such therapy represents the vision and mission of precision medicine, the highest level of personalized medicine.
