During the past fifteen or twenty years there have been remarkable advances in the methods of study of the functions of the brain in a wide range of species including man. As a result there has been a large increase in the factual knowledge of brain function but the interpretation and the application of these new facts has often tended to lag. The chapters in this book are the formal statements of those specialists of various disciplines who took part in a course of lectures and discussions of methods of the investigation of brain function in May 1980. Not only do they usually indicate the present state of knowledge and comprehension of the many functions of the brain of several species, but...

Radiologists, orthopedic and neurological surgeons present the different minimally invasive methods. Peripheral nerve problems and problems concerning differential diagnosis in special situations such as between radicular and peripheral nerve trunk lesions are discussed, pinpointing the significance of different diagnostic tools. Minimally invasive techniques, utilized nowadays to minimize bone demolition, scarring and risk of recurrence are analyzed. Microdiscectomy is compared with the results of intradiscal techniques, and new methods are discussed facing problems such as epidural fibrotisation, microinstability, osteoporotic or neoplastic or posttraumatic vertebral lesions.

Since the early days of neurosurgery the management of patients with intracranial hypertension has formed part of the day-to-day routine of the neurosurgeon. The introduction of modem techniques for the clinical monitoring of the intracranial pressure (ICP) meant a firmer basis for the diagnosis and treatment of these patients but it also started a new research boom in the pathophysiology of ICP, and its integration with the intracranial dynamics and metabolism of the brain. This development was clearly demonstrated at the first ICP symposium which was most successfully arranged in 1972 by Hermann Dietz and Mario Brock at the Medizinische Hochschule of Hannover. The widespread interest in IC...

Non passa giorno senza che stampa o televisione parlino dei più recenti e strepitosi progressi dovuti all'Intelligenza Artificiale. In ogni ambito, dall'ingegneria aerospaziale alla medicina, dall'arte alla quotidianità domestica, vengono sviluppati programmi capaci di alleviarci da compiti ripetitivi, noiosi o che semplicemente non riusciremmo a fare, portandoli a termine con precisione, pazienza e meticolosità decisamente sovraumane. È rivoluzionario poter avere macchine che eseguono in pochi secondi calcoli assai complessi, oppure un frigorifero che ci avvisa quando il latte sta per scadere. Ma cosa accade quando questa tecnologia sembra diventare troppo pervasiva e pare appropriarsi ...
