The topography of the brainstem is complex, and even experienced neurologists find it challenging to localize brainstem lesions and diagnose brainstem disorders. This richly illustrated book provides a comprehensive review of brainstem disorders and presents the clinical knowledge necessary for diagnosis. The opening sections document the brainstem neuroanatomy and discuss current diagnostic methods. The entire spectrum of clinical findings in brainstem disorders is then described, and topodiagnostic aspects of the neurological findings are explained in detail. The descriptions of brain stem disorders are consistently structured and are supported by many MR images and short case reports. In addition to primary brainstem lesions, such as vascular brainstem syndromes, other disorders are considered that do not exclusively show brainstem symptoms or signs, e.g., multiple sclerosis. This book will serve as an invaluable reference work for neurologists in clinical practice or further education.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"This monograph predominantly written by German authors is an excellent review of the brain stem and its disorders. ... The text is profusely littered with tables, diagrams and images making it an excellent learning tool. ... This is ... a superb contribution to the literature and its multidisciplinary, integrated approach combining anatomical, physiological, pathological and imaging detail means that it would be profitably read not only by radiologists with an interest in the brain but also by neurologists and other interested stroke physicians." (Arpan Banerjee, RAD Magazine, November, 2011)
