Neuro-Ophthalmology

Editat de Andrew G. Lee, Alexandra J. Sinclair, Ama Sadaka, Shauna Berry, Susan P. Mollan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 ian 2019

Destinat cu precădere rezidenților în neurologie și oftalmologie, precum și specialiștilor care gestionează patologii complexe de interfață, acest volum publicat de Springer oferă o perspectivă clinică riguroasă asupra standardelor de îngrijire la nivel global. Notăm cu interes abordarea comparativă a editorilor coordonați de Andrew G. Lee, care depășesc cadrul teoretic pentru a evidenția cum variațiile geografice influențează diagnosticul diferențial și strategiile de tratament. Structura cărții urmărește o progresie logică, debutând cu protocoalele pentru nevrita optică și screeningul NMO, continuând cu managementul hipertensiunii intracraniene idiopatice (IIH) și culminând cu intervenții chirurgicale precum fenestrația tecii nervului optic sau stentarea sinusurilor venoase cerebrale.

Subliniem faptul că, spre deosebire de manualele clasice care prezintă un algoritm unic, Neuro-Ophthalmology integrează nuanțe practice esențiale pentru medicina contemporană, inclusiv neuroimagistica pentru neuropatii izolate și testarea farmacologică a pupilei. Lucrarea este un manual de referință comparabil cu Neuro-ophthalmic Disorders de Preeti Patil Chhablani, dar se distinge prin accentul pus pe managementul divergențelor internaționale și pe opțiunile terapeutice bazate pe dovezi actualizate conform ghidurilor din 2019. În contextul operei editorului Andrew G. Lee, acest titlu completează viziunea practică din Questions and Answers in Neuro-Ophthalmology și rigoarea din Emergencies in Neuro-Ophthalmology, oferind de această dată un cadru de referință global, adaptat nevoilor medicului care profesează într-un mediu multicultural sau care urmărește ultimele protocoale clinice internaționale.

De ce să citești această carte

Această lucrare este esențială pentru medicii care doresc să înțeleagă nu doar 'ce' să trateze, ci și 'cum' variază protocoalele de tratament la nivel mondial. Cititorul câștigă acces la expertiza unor lideri globali în neuro-oftalmologie, primind îndrumări clare pentru cazuri dificile precum neuropatia optică ischemică anterioară sau arterita cu celule gigante. Este un instrument de diagnostic diferențial indispensabil în practica clinică avansată.


Despre autor

Andrew G. Lee este un lider recunoscut în domeniul neuro-oftalmologiei, cu o activitate editorială prolifică axată pe transformarea cunoștințelor teoretice în ghiduri clinice aplicabile. A coordonat numeroase volume de referință, inclusiv serii dedicate urgențelor neuro-oftalmologice și consultațiilor de specialitate. Expertiza sa acoperă o gamă largă, de la neurologie clinică până la aplicații inovatoare în medicina spațială, reflectată în lucrarea Fundamentals of Space Medicine and Clinical Technology. Contribuția sa în volumul de față subliniază angajamentul de a standardiza și, în același timp, de a nuanța îngrijirea neuro-oftalmologică la scară internațională.


Descriere scurtă

This book offers an overview on the most recent advances in global neuro-opthalmic care. Global variation in the incidence and prevalence of specific neuro-ophthalmic conditions results in geographic differences in differential diagnosis, evaluation, management, and treatment of specific disorders. It covers a variety of disorders from optic neuritis, idiopathic intracranial hypertension to traumatic optic neuropathy. To understand the key differences in neuro-ophthalmic health care, this book has gathered recognized experts from around the world to describe and define these regional and geographic variations of care.
By highlighting various international approaches to diagnosing and treating neuro-ophthalmic disorders, this book will be an essential guide for neuro-ophthalmologists, ophthalmologists, and neurologists seeking to build upon their clinical skills in a global context.
