CiNii 図書 - Viral encephalitis in humans

Designed to assist clinicians in the diagnosis and therapy of patients with suspected viral encephalitis. * Presents information according to the clinical and epidemiological information available at the time of presentation of the patients rather than according to principles of viral taxonomy. * Emphasizes neuropathological descriptions and pathogenesis concepts, reflecting the authors' belief that an understanding of pathogenesis facilitates the diagnostic process and is central to therapeutic intervention. * Covers the full range of human encephalitis/encephalopathy, including HIV/AIDS, prion diseases, and smallpox. This title is published by the American Society for Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
