Brain Mapping: The Disorders is the first comprehensive text to describe the uses of the latest brain mapping
technologies in the evaluation of patients with neurological, neurosurgical and psychiatric disorders. With contributions
from the leading figures in the field, this heavily illustrated text is organized by disorders of brain systems,
with specific examples of how one should use current neuroimaging techniques to evaluate patients with specific
cerebral disorders. Comprehensive in scope, the text discusses patient evaluations using the wide range of modern
magnetic resonance imaging techniques, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography,
optical intrinsic signal imaging, electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, and transcranial magnetic stimulation.
The third in this brain mapping series, Brain Mapping: The Disorders, is the ultimate text for anyone interested
in the use of brain mapping techniques to study patients with disorders of the central nervous system.
