Imaging Methodology and Applications in Parkinson's Disease, Volume 141, provides an up-to-date and comprehensive textbook on the use of imaging modalities across the spectrum of movement disorders and dementias. Over the last decades, advances in neuroimaging tools has played a pivotal role in expanding our understanding of disease etiology and pathophysiology, identifying biomarkers to monitor disease progression, aiding differential diagnosis, and in the identification of novel targets for therapeutic intervention. This book brings together lessons learned from neuroimaging tools in movement disorders, including chapters on Advances in PET Methodology, Advances in MRI Methodology, Advances in SPECT Methodology, Hybrid PET/MRI Methodology, and more. Provides an up-to-date and comprehensive textbook addressing all aspects of neuroimaging in movement disorders Offers a complete review of advances in core imaging methodology and the application of neuroimaging tools Represents an indispensable educational and research reference of value to all movement disorder specialists, physicians, researchers and students
It is an insidious illness with no known cure, afflicting those who suffer from it with near-uncontrollable tremors, speech impairment, and balance problems. In addition, one's intelligence experiences decline. Among its most prominent victims are Muhammad Ali and Michael J Fox. Parkinson's disease is a disorder of certain nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine, which is a chemical messenger that the brain uses to help direct and control movement. In Parkinson's disease, these dopamine-producing nerve cells break down, dopamine levels drop, and brain signals directing movement become abnormal. Usually, the disease begins in later life (in one's 50s or after), although there are cases...
Cet ouvrage d'experts rassemble des informations destinées aux neurologues, mais aussi à tous les professionnels de santé impliqués dans la prise en charge de ces pathologies du mouvement. Les deux premiers chapitres portent sur l’anatomie fonctionnelle des noyaux gris centraux, et sur l’imagerie des mouvements anormaux. Plusieurs autres sont réservés à la maladie de Parkinson et aux autres syndromes parkinsoniens dégénératifs. Les maladies héréditaires affectant le cervelet sont abordées également dans un chapitre spécifique
La maladie de Parkinson est, après la maladie d’Alzheimer, l’affection neurologique la plus répandue au sein de la population après 50 ans. Sa prévalence augmentant avec l’âge, surtout au-delà de 60 ans, on peut prévoir qu’avec le vieillissement de la population, le nombre de patients ne cessera d’augmenter dans les années à venir.La quatrième édition de cet ouvrage, entièrement en couleurs, consacrée à la maladie de Parkinson, rend compte de façon didactique des avancées de ces cinq dernières années, en abordant de façon exhaustive tous les aspects de cette pathologie : l’épidémiologie, l’étiopathogénie, les aspects génétiques, la physiopathologie, les...
