Carotid Disease
Stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with carotid disease representing an important contributory risk factor. This book is about the pathogenesis and management of carotid disease with specific focus on the role imaging has to play in the early recognition of symptomatic and asymptomatic disease as well as the treatment of the developed condition. Technological advances in imaging modalities now allow detailed analysis of the disease progression, the prediction of critical events leading to a stroke, as well as the identification of the most effective surgical or other interventional treatments. This book should be read by neurologists, cardiologists, vascular surgeons, neurosurgeons and radiologists involved in the care of patients with carotid disease, and also by researchers involved in the development of new therapeutic techniques and drugs.

The Physics and Mathematics of MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a very important clinical imaging tool. It combines different fields of physics and engineering in a uniquely complex way. MRI is also surprisingly versatile, 'pulse sequences' can be designed to yield many different types of contrast. This versatility is unique to MRI. This short book gives both an in depth account of the methods used for the operation and construction of modern MRI systems and also the principles of sequence design and many examples of applications. An important additional feature of this book is the detailed discussion of the mathematical principles used in building optimal MRI systems and for sequence design. The mathematical discussion is very suitable for undergraduates attending medical physics courses. It is also more complete than usually found in alternative books for physical scientists or more clinically orientated works.
Fast Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Among medical imaging modalities, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) stands out for its excellent soft-tissue contrast, anatomical detail, and high sensitivity for disease detection. However, as proven by the continuous and vast effort to develop new MRI techniques, limitations and open challenges remain. The primary source of contrast in MRI images are the various relaxation parameters associated with the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) phenomena upon which MRI is based. Although it is possible to quantify these relaxation parameters (qMRI) they are rarely used in the clinic, and radiological interpretation of images is primarily based upon images that are relaxation time weighted. The clini...
MRI from Picture to Proton
MR is a powerful modality. At its most advanced, it can be used not just to image anatomy and pathology, but to investigate organ function, to probe in vivo chemistry, and even to visualise the brain thinking. However, clinicians, technologists and scientists struggle with the study of the subject. The result is sometimes an obscurity of understanding, or a dilution of scientific truth, resulting in misconceptions. This is why MRI from Picture to Proton has achieved its reputation for practical clarity. MR is introduced as a tool, with coverage starting from the images, equipment and scanning protocols and traced back towards the underlying physics theory. With new content on quantitative MRI, MR safety, multi-band excitation, Dixon imaging, MR elastography and advanced pulse sequences, and with additional supportive materials available on the book's website, this new edition is completely revised and updated to reflect the best use of modern MR technology.
4 Empty Graves
The end has come for Martin Teebs. He's spent years of his life coursing through time and back, chasing his friendship with Billy the Kid, and his soulmate, Rosita Luna. In the final explosive chapter of the Back to Billy saga, Martin will face a final showdown with the man who threatened to steal everything from him, Carl Farber. Incredible secrets will be revealed. Alliances will be tested. Reality itself will be challenged as everyone converges on one spot, at one time, in Lincoln, New Mexico to once and for all end the Lincoln County War?one way or another!
Murder on St. Martin [LARGE PRINT]
"...the plot twists are worthy of Erle Stanley Gardner." ―Booklist Scottish advocate and amiable amateur sleuth Rex Graves travels to the Caribbean island of St. Martin to assist in the search for a missing French actress―and gets more than he bargained for... And it's not just the sharks. Complicating the case is the revelation that the beguiling Sabine Durand had so many ardent admirers and jealous rivals. It seems everyone at the fashionable resort has something to hide―from Sabine's rich older husband to the daredevil playboy millionaire to Monsieur Bijou, an influential developer with a fetish for jewels. Secrets and motives are laid bare as Rex works to uncover the real culprit on this island in paradise. "A clever variant on the locked room mystery. With a host of colorful characters, a dose of humor and a balmy locale, you will want to devour this well-plotted mystery." ―Mystery Scene
Graves, Robert
A volume in the Writers and Their Work series, which draws upon recent thinking in English studies to introduce writers and their contexts. Each volume includes biographical material, an examination of recent criticism, a bibliography and a reappraisal of a major work by the writer.
The Anglo-Saxon Cemetery at Castledyke South, Barton-on-Humber
The Anglo-Saxon cemetery at Castledyke South, Barton-on-Humber, which dates from the early sixth to the late seventh centuries, was discovered through the disturbance of five graves in 1939. Castledyke is the first inhumation cemetery in the 'Kingdom of Lindsey' to be comprehensively reported to modern standards. This cemetery is unusual for the long duration and intensity of its use. The diversity of mortuary practice may in part be ascribed to these factors, to the estuarine location of the site, and perhaps to a more mixed population than has been encountered in other regions.
