Editat de Shitiz Sriwastava, Evanthia Bernitsas
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 ian 2024
Clinical Aspects of Multiple Sclerosis Essentials and Current Updates offers readers a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and its related disorders, providing the latest research findings and insights to ensure readers are well informed. This book thoroughly examines the underlying genetic factors contributing to the development of the disease while emphasizing the significant role of vitamin D in both the pathogenesis and treatment of MS. Furthermore, this book provides essential information on current treatment guidelines for effectively managing MS during pregnancy. This includes a specific focus on optimizing outcomes and addressing the complexities involved, healthcare professionals are equipped to handle the challenges presented by this specific patient population. Overall, this book delivers meticulous, updated, and extensive information on all aspects of MS, from demographic features and etiopathogenesis to the latest diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. With a focus on delivering valuable knowledge and practical insights, Clinical Aspects of Multiple Sclerosis Essentials and Current Updates serves as an essential resource for healthcare professionals and researchers seeking a deeper understanding of MS.

  • Explores the practical applications of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) in assessing MS.
  • Delves into utilizing advanced imaging modalities and corresponding radiological findings for the diagnosis and monitoring.
  • Includes cutting-edge technologies: 7 Tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), positron emission tomography (PET), and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MR spectroscopy).

Recenzii

"...[a] comprehensive guide covers recent advances in multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders, and conditions that can mimic MS like Behcet’s disease, Susac syndrome, adult-onset leukodystrophies, sarcoidosis, and Sjogren’s syndrome. [P]rovide insights into research and clinical developments for neuroscientists, neurologists, and students in training who want to learn more about MS [which] includes management of special pediatric and pregnant populations and differentiation of MS from related neuro-immunologic conditions that often mimic it.... [Has] a helpful table of contents that provides a nice outline of the topics.... Each chapter starts with a helpful list of abbreviations, subheadings, figures, and tables, and ends with a comprehensive list of references. [W]ell-written and offers a useful introduction to MS, encompassing both pathogenesis and diagnostic criteria. It does a great job of reviewing several key topics related to complex diseases like MS, and the many advances that have developed over the past few decades. [P]rovides clinicians with a helpful framework to help with understanding, diagnosis, and treating patients with this disease. For researchers, it highlights many areas where additional research is needed and it describes tools, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography, that can be useful in this pursuit. [W]ell-organized and its inclusion of related disorders, which can frequently mimic MS, will help readers distinguish and differentiate. The extensive list of references at the end of each chapter helps provide directions for further study. Lastly, readers are left with inspiration to develop their own insights on these complex diseases that affect so many patients worldwide." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Nara Michaelson, MD (Massachusetts General Hospital)
