Intracranial Pressure and Brain Monitoring XIV
Nearly 80 short papers originating from the 14th International Symposium on Intracranial Pressure and Brain Monitoring held in Tuebingen, Germany, in September 2010 present experimental as well as clinical research data related to the naming topics of the conference. The papers have undergone a peer-reviewing and are organized in the following sections: methods of brain monitoring and data analysis, methods of invasive and non-invasive ICP assessment, the role of autoregulation, the role of tissue oxygenation and near-infrared spectroscopy, hydrocephalus/IIH imaging and diagnosis, management and therapy of hydrocephalus, management and therapy of traumatic brain injury, management and therapy of subarachnoid and intracranial hemorrhage, experimental approaches to acute brain disease. The book gives a good overview on the latest research developments in the field of ICP and related brain monitoring and on management and therapy of relevant acute brain diseases.
Hydrocephalus
The contributions in this volume, presented at the 5th International Hydrocephalus Workshop in May 2010 in Crete, Greece, give the present state-of-the-art in timely diagnosis and treatment of hydrocephalus. The topics covered include advances in management of both pediatric and adult hydrocephalus, identifying shunt responders, clinical experiences in endoscopic third ventriculostomy, clinical trials, pathophysiology, experimental studies, and the new classification for hydrocephalus.
Law, Solidarity and the Limits of Social Europe
This is an open access title available under the terms of a [CC BY-NC-ND 4.0] License. It is free to read, download and share on Elgaronline.com. This thought-provoking book examines the socio-legal mechanisms that drive EU constitutional tensions, as well as the role of principles and values in re-directing EU law and policy towards a democratic Social Europe. It addresses the current limits of Social Europe in relation to different areas of EU law, offering a critical assessment of the present status of EU integration.
Tracking the Deep Biosphere through Time
Deep biosphere research is at the scientific frontier of bio- and geo-related sciences, yet it is largely underexplored. In terms of volume, deep subsurface settings represent some of the largest microbial habitats on the planet, and the combined biomass of the deep biosphere encompasses the largest living reservoir of carbon, excluding land plants. However, the paleo-record of the deep biosphere is still largely uncharted and neglected. The aim of this book is to highlight current research on deep life through time and bring together researchers with various perspectives. The book presents a collection of scientific contributions that provide a sample of forefront research in this field. The contributions involve a range of case studies of deep ancient life in continental and oceanic settings, of microbial diversity in sub-seafloor environments, and of the isolation of calcifying bacteria, as well as reviews on clay mineralization of fungal biofilms and on the carbon isotope records of the deep biosphere. Deciphering the fossil record of the deep biosphere is a challenging task but, when successful, will unlock doors to life’s cryptic past.
Multi Modality State-of-the-Art Medical Image Segmentation and Registration Methodologies
With the advances in image guided surgery for cancer treatment, the role of image segmentation and registration has become very critical. The central engine of any image guided surgery product is its ability to quantify the organ or segment the organ whether it is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), X-ray, PET, SPECT, Ultrasound, and Molecular imaging modality. Sophisticated segmentation algorithms can help the physicians delineate better the anatomical structures present in the input images, enhance the accuracy of medical diagnosis and facilitate the best treatment planning system designs. The focus of this book in towards the state of the art techniques in the area of image segmentation and registration.
On Wisconsin!
These unique and easy-to-read vignettes about Badger lore include the football exploits of Pat O'Dea and Alan "The Horse" Ameche; the basketball heroics of Wisconsin's 1941 national championship team; and the thrills generated by Badger greats Suzy Favor, Pat Richter, Michael Finley, Mark Johnson, Scott Lamphear, and many more.

Wenn Kunst behindert wird
Was haben die Hamburger und die Mainzer Kunsthalle gemeinsam? Beides sind Orte, an denen Werke von Künstler_innen gezeigt wurden bzw. werden, die als geistig behindert gelten. Die Ausstellungen scheinen einer vorschnellen Ablehnung des Kunststatus der präsentierten Werke ebenso entgegenzustehen wie der These, dass die Urhebenden und ihre Werke in unserer Gesellschaft »behindert« werden. Auf der Basis der Diskursanalyse und im Rahmen der Disability Studies analysiert Viola Luz die Auseinandersetzungen in Kunstbetrieb, Kunstgeschichte und Gesellschaft mit dem Ziel, weitreichende praxisorientierte und kunstpolitische Perspektiven auf die Kunst geistig behinderter Menschen zu entwickeln.
Brain Edema XV
More than 60 papers written by internationally recognized experts cover the broad spectrum of brain edema. The main topics treated are: ischemia & hemorrhage, trauma (experimental and clinical), cerebral hemorrhage, tumor, hydrocephlaus & intracranial pressure (ICP), neuromonitoring & neuroimaging, treatments, blood brain barrier, and miscellaneous.
