Description
This is a large-format full-colour atlas-textbook of stroke - its physiological mechanisms and many different manifestations along with diagnostic information and the broad range of therapeutic options now available for its successful management. It features many MRI, X-ray, and other scans as well as a large number of pathological and histopathological examples demonstrating the full impact of the disease. The book includes Dr. Semple's exceptionally lucid explanatory text and detailed explanatory captions accompanying high-quality colour plates covering epidemiology, classification, investigation including transient ischemic attacks, the ischemic penumbra, cardioembolism, lacunar strokes, intracerebral hemorrhage, vascular causes of dementia, and primary prevention including hypertension.
