Description - Cerebral Ischaemia by Werner Hacke
This book covers the different causes of cerebral ischemia on the basis of information gained from new diagnostic techniques, in particular ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography. Various treatment possibilites are considered based on the different analysis of topical anatomy and the dynamic aspects of the clinical phenomena. This approach is preferable to the conventional stage classification of stroke development because it reveals the individual pathomechanisms involved - hemodynamic and thromboembolic causes, macro- and microangiopathies, marginal flow and lacunar infarcts - and leads to the appropriate forms of treatment. With this in mind, the relevant anatomic and physiologic aspects of the cerebral circulation and the development of ischemia are discussed. The book also provides a description of the clinical syndromes and modern diagnostic techniques and critically examines the current status of treatment.
