Neuroscience for Neurosurgeons

With significant advances in medicine and medical innovation , the landscape of neurosurgery has transformed dramatically. This pivotal book emphasizes the importance of marrying research with everyday practice, encouraging modern surgeons to actively engage in both clinical and laboratory settings to enhance patient prognosis. Highlighting the principles of basic neuroscience and their direct application to neurosurgical diseases, this essential resource meticulously dissects neurological conditions into current academic themes and groundbreaking advances. The book is organized into two distinct sections: Basic and Computational Neuroscience: This section encompasses crucial topics such as neuroanatomy , neurophysiology , and the expanding role of artificial intelligence in neurosurgery. Specific Neurological Conditions: Focused discussions delve into various conditions, including gliomas , degenerative cervical myelopathy , and peripheral nerve injury . nThis book outlines the pathophysiological underpinnings of neurosurgical conditions, coupled with an examination of the key investigative tools utilized to study disease burden. As a comprehensive guide, it serves as an invaluable source for the academic neurosurgeon engaged in both basic and translational research. Who should read this book? It is specifically designed for neurosurgeons, medical students, and researchers who seek a deeper understanding of contemporary neurosurgery and its foundational neuroscience. What makes it special? This book not only provides critical insights into the evolving field of neurosurgery but also bridges the gap between theory Authors: nFarhana Akter (Editor) Publication Date: nJanuary 25, 2024
