内容説明

This text explores the neurological aspects of hearing disorders case-by-case across a wide range of cases spanning 15 years. It reflects the National Institute of Health's designation of the 1990s as the "Decade of the Brain" in order to mark the advances in technology and science resulting from studies in the brain. While these case studies are relevant for clinicians, the authors also use them to provide a comprehensive understanding of the central auditory nervous system (CANS), as stated in their goals for the text: 1. To interest the reader in neuroaudiology by detailing informative and representative cases. 2. To increase the reader's knowledge of disorders that may affect the CANS and auditory nerve. 3. To expose the reader to a wide variety of test procedures used on individual cases. 4. To offer the author's ideas, hypotheses, experience, and interpretation of the results of each case. The text describe the value of studying lesions of the human CANS and associated neuroanatomy as the foundation of neuroaudiology and is profusely illustrated with 207 pictures and diagrams that include CT and MRI scans, audiograms, and anatomical photographs. It is written for students of clinical audiology who need to experience step-by-step accounts of neuroaudtiological evaluations and makes an excellent course textbook on neuroaudiology and central auditory disorders. The various cases also serve as useful examples for coursework on evoked potentials, while clinical audiologists will use the book as a primary reference source for cases with CNS involvement.
