About This Book
Diagnosis, evaluation, imaging, emergency evaluation and management, management of hemorrhagic stroke, therapies to restore or improve blood flow, neuroprotective therapies, and secondary prevention of stroke are discussed. Algorithms are presented for evaluation of suspected stroke, ordering of transesophageal or transthoracic echocardiography, assessment prior to treatment with rt-PA, and prevention of stroke.
Reviews
The text is illustrated with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans and is interspersed throughout with very helpful summary tables. Advice is clearly given and where there is controversy, the authors do not hesitate to discuss both sides of the argument.
