Publisher's Synopsis
Functional and Molecular Imaging of Stroke and Dementia: Updates in Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring consists of speeches by distinguished investigators given at an international symposium with the same name in Kyoto, Japan, on October 14 and 15, 2005. The meeting was designed to gather the leading scientists of the field to further enhance knowledge of recent progress in imaging technique as well as the treatment and monitoring of stroke and dementia. It included state-of-the-art lectures and free discussion on the presented topics. The book begins with a description of the future directions of functional and molecular imaging of stroke and dementias. Though it is authored by many leading world experts it also conveys new ideas, novel approaches and recent discoveries that could lead scientist into the new era of neuroimaging. Functional and Molecular Imaging of Stroke and Dementia: Updates in Diagnosis, Treatment and Monitoring is highly recommended to researchers around the world who are interested in this field.
