内容説明

In recent years there have been considerable advances in the understanding of these neuropsychiatric diseases, including the role of the B amyloid gene in Alzheimer's disease, the aberrant form of prion protein in transmissible dementias and documentation of structural brain abnormalities in schizophrenia. These are critical to the understanding of the pathology, symptoms and diagnosis of neuropsychiatric diseases. This atlas draws together protein chemistry, molecular biology, immunohistology and imaging methods, and provides an overview of the molecular, pathological and related clinical phenomena of neuropsychiatric disease. Chapters present data pictorially on the types and occurence of pathology. The main part of the text relates currently accepted views on the molecular mechanisms of disease to the known neurochemical consequences. This use of integrated text and graphics is designed to relate the information to known pathology and subsequently to clinical signs and symptoms. Each chapter comments on methods of diagnosis and aspects of differential diagnosis to illustrate the pathological and molecular similarities and differences between the diseases.
