Emerging Electromagnetic Technologies for Brain Diseases Diagnostics, Monitoring and Therapy
Editat de Lorenzo Crocco, Irene Karanasiou, Michael L James, Raquel Cruz Conceiçãoen Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 mar 2018
This timely book presents innovative technologies for use in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of brain disease. These technologies offer exciting possibilities in the medical field owing to their low-cost, portability and safety.
The authors address cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke, ischemia, haemorrhage, and vasospasm, these diseases having an ever-increasing societal relevance due to the global ageing population. The authors describe the potential of novel techniques such as microwave imaging and present innovative modalities for treatment of brain tumours using electromagnetic fields and nano-composites, as well as for monitoring brain temperature during surgery. Finally, Emerging Electromagnetic Technologies for Brain Diseases Diagnostics, Monitoring and Therapy addresses the perspectives which arise from multi-modal multi-spectral EM modalities, which make a synergic use of the different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
This text will be of interest to readers from various different areas, given the fundamental interdisciplinarity of the subject matter. This includes researchers or practitioners in the field of electrical engineering, applied physicists, and applied mathematicians working on imaging applications for biomedical and electromagnetic technologies. Neurologists and radiologists may also find this book of interest, as may graduate students in these areas.

Michael L. "Luke" James is board-certified in anaesthesiology, neurology, vascular neurology, and neurocritical care at Duke University MC, NC. While pursuing an active and productive research career, his clinical time is spent attending in the neuroscience critical care unit and providing anaesthesia for complex neurosurgical procedures. As a clinician-scientist, he is uniquely qualified to function as a facilitator for translating promising therapeutic strategies for patients with acute brain injuries from the lab into the clinical research arena. As a founding member of the Brain Injury Translational Research Centre, Dr. James is able to provide a background in which to incorporate his clinical research interests including proteo-genomic interactions after traumatic braininjury and intracerebral haemorrhage. He is specifically interested in the effects of sex and gonadal hormones on recovery and their role in modulating acute inflammation after acute CNS injury. Dr. James is the associate director of the Multidisciplinary Neuroprotection Laboratories (MNL) at Duke. Investigators in the MNL use a number of different preclinical in vivo and in vitro models to evaluate neuroinflammation and neurobehavioural recovery after acute CNS injuries, including stroke, spinal cord injury, hypoxic-ischemic injury, global ischemia, subarachnoid haemorrhage, intracerebral haemorrhage, spinal cord injury, and traumatic brain injury. While he has evaluated several potentially translatable therapeutics in the past, Dr. James's utilises a number of in vitro and in vivo models, as well as transgenic systems, to discover sex-specific inflammation and recovery patterns after intracerebral haemorrhage to discover targets for therapeutic development.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
The book presents an overview of emerging technologies making use of electromagnetic waves for diagnostics, monitoring and treatment of brain diseases. These innovative technologies offer exciting possibilities in the medical field, owing to their low-cost, portability and safety. Hence their contribution to reduce the mortality and permanent injuries is expected to become important in the future.
The book will specifically address cerebrovascular diseases (such as stroke, ischemia, haemorrhage, vasospasm), which have an ever-increasing societal relevance of to the ageing of population, describing the potential of innovative techniques, such as microwave imaging. Moreover, it will present innovative modalities for treatment of brain tumours jointly using electromagnetic fields and nano-composites, as well as monitoring brain temperature during surgery. Finally it will address the perspectives that arise from multi-modal multi-spectral EM modalities, which make a synergicuse of the different portions of the EM spectrum. All chapters in the book present examples of electromagnetic technologies and their applications to the diagnostic, the monitoring and the treatment of brain diseases, illustrating the capabilities, the experiments and the outcome of clinical trials.
With the aim of making the book broadly accessible to interested scholars coming from different areas and experiences (which is expected, given the multi-disciplinarity of the subject), some chapters provide an insight in some fundamental aspects of the treated topic. For instance, the physiology of cerebrovascular diseases, the clinical challenges to be faced in neurointensive care and the emergent needs are revised. Also, the physics underlying the adoption of microwave technologies in diagnostics and monitoring, its potential as well as the limitations of this technology are revised.
The book gathers contributions from the researchers with different background,thus a multidisciplinary and up-to-date overview of the state-of-the-art in this emerging field.
