Request a sales quoteThe Cerebellum: Disorders and Treatment, Volume 155 updates readers on the latest and clinically relevant advances in the study of cerebellar diseases in children and adults. It is organized into sections detailing: (1) Disorders (starting from the fetal cerebellum, to adult cerebellum) encountered during daily practice, and (2) Therapy (including insights into innovative drug and rehabilitative approaches). The book's innovative structure discusses cerebellar disorders in children and adults as a continuum, with its companion volume, The Cerebellum: From Embryology to Diagnostic Investigations detailing embryology, anatomy, function and diagnostic investigations and neuroimaging, including conventional sequences, diffusion tensor imaging, functional MRI, and connectivity studies.
- Provides an in-depth understanding of the cerebellum and its involvement in a wide variety of diseases
- Explores long-term outcome data of pediatric cerebellar diseases and potential problems in adult life for patients with pediatric cerebellar diseases
- Features chapters co-authored by two experts, combining expertise in both pediatric and adult cerebellar diseases
Basic and clinical researchers in neuroscience; fellows, residents, and practicing clinicians in neurology, pediatric neurology, neuropathology, and movement disorders
