内容説明

The all-new Second Edition of this landmark work details the past few years' dramatic advances in diagnostic and surgical technology and offers more definitive guidance on the complex decisions that must be made during preoperative evaluation, surgery, and postoperative follow-up. The leading authorities from all of the world's major epilepsy surgery centers present the first and only published consensus statements on all crucial and controversial aspects of epilepsy surgery--from identification of candidates for surgery, to noninvasive and invasive preoperative evaluation, choice of surgical procedure and techniques, and postoperative psychosocial rehabilitation. To ensure optimal utilization of epilepsy surgery, the book offers primary care physicians guidelines on whom to refer for surgery and when, and recommends ways of improving the cost-effectiveness of surgery
