(openPR) - New York/Stuttgart - For two decades the Handbook of Neurosurgery, published by Thieme, has been a trusted companion for neurosurgery residents, neurologists and other medical professionals involved in the care and treatment of patients with brain and spine disorders. This seminal text, now in its seventh edition, covers the full range of neurosurgery and its specialties and presents readers with the most up-to-date information in this continuously evolving field. It is designed to put critical neurosurgical information at the user's fingertips for rapid referencing.
"The Handook of Neurosurgery is a convenient resource for specific information to assist in the management of neurosurgical patients and to quickly provide answers to important neurosurgical questions with over 5,000 references to the medical literature," states author and neurosurgeon, Mark S. Greenberg, MD.
Dr. Greenberg has introduced multiple additions to his bestselling reference work, such as the innovative Booking the Case feature found in over 30 different neurosurgical operations throughout the book. This feature assists readers while scheduling operations and is particularly helpful to a resident who is unfamiliar with a procedure and has to schedule it for emergency surgery. Other additions include detailed coverage of brain mapping, radiation safety for neurosurgeons, and full-color inserts that enhance the readability of the text.
The Handbook of Neurosurgery is renowned for both its scope and its accessibility. This fully updated edition of the portable, single-volume guide is a must-have resource and tool for neurosurgery residents and everyone working in the clinical neurosciences. As with previous editions, the seventh edition contains the most widely used scales and grading systems in neurosurgery. Management strategies recommended by experts are succinctly presented. An extensive index, spanning 90 of the 1,330 pages of the book, ensures rapid access to all of the important information contained within.
