      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.

      Neuroimaging in Neurogenic Communication Disorders provides a comprehensive review of cases utilizing neuroimaging in neurogenic communication disorders. Basic knowledge of neuroanatomy and medical conditions related to these speech and language disorders are discussed. Each case study includes information on neuroanatomy, case presentation, neuroimaging, differential diagnosis, and final diagnosis. This book is written for medical students, practitioners and researchers in neuroscience and speech language pathology. Neurogenic communication disorders are caused by damage to the central or peripheral nervous system. This damage can be caused by Parkinson’s disease, stroke, dementia, traumatic brain injury, brain tumors, and other neurologic disorders and causes issues such as aphasia, dysarthria and apraxia.

In addition, it explores from a behavioral level concepts like psychopathology, syndrome and concepts from law, such as crime, defendant and offender. Finally, sections explore brain function, including emotion, cognitive processes, and decision-making. From the perspective of brain structure, the book covers brain networks and brain disorders. In genetics, the book includes the influence of genes and the mechanisms of epigenetics. All chapters are intended to provide information for use in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders, and in assessment and prevention.
