Download or read book Imagerie du cerveau foetal pathologique written by Catherine Garel and published by Sauramps Médical. This book was released on 2002 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre fait suite au " Développement du cerveau fœtal : atlas IRM et biométrie ", publié en 2000 aux éditions Sauramps Médical. Suivant la même méthodologie de corrélation systématique de l'imagerie anténatale avec l'examen neurofœtopathologique ou l'évolution postnatale, il a pour objectif d'aider le praticien chargé de l'évaluation morphologique fœtale à dépister, analyser et comprendre les anomalies cérébrales fœtales, de leur genèse à leur pronostic. L'IRM fœtale est l'investigation-clé dès lors qu'à l'échographie est envisagée la possibilité d'un développement cérébral anormal. L'iconographie présentée, constituée exclusivement de cas rigoureusement documentés, juxtapose comme dans la pratique clinique, échographies et IRM cérébrales fœtales et leurs corrélations anatomiques ou évolutives. S'appuyant également sur une large revue de la littérature, ce travail se veut être un outil offrant au médecin la possibilité de délivrer aux parents une information claire et la plus complète possible dans un domaine où chaque cas doit être individuellement évalué au mieux de l'état de l'art.

Download or read book Exploration in utero du cerveau foetal par imagerie de diffusion par r sonance magn tique written by Trong Hieu Tony Bui and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’imagerie de diffusion est utilisée aux différents âges post-nataux, mais n’a pas encore été étudiée chez le foetus. Afin de déterminer sa faisabilité, nous avons étudié de manière prospective à l’Hôpital Robert Debré, 48 IRM de diffusion avec mesure du coefficient apparent de diffusion (ADC) et de la fraction d’anisotropie (FA) dans dix-neuf sites anatomiques. Vingt-cinq examens de foetus normaux âgés de 31 SA à 37 SA et 3 jours sont inclus dans l’étude. Parmi les examens exclus, quatre examens l’ont été pour des artéfacts dûs à un dysfonctionnement des gradients de diffusion et/ou aux mouvements du foetus. Les résultats de notre étude, comparés à ceux de la littérature chez des prématurés d’âges équivalents, valident la mesure de I’ADC in utero. Ainsi on retrouve des différences significatives de l’ADC selon les régions anatomiques et selon la micro-architecture de substance blanche qui est fonction de son organisation spatiale (centre semi-ovale versus corps calleux, respectivement 1,8 μm2 versus 1,2 μm2 et de sa myélinisation (centre semi-ovale versus pons postérieur, respectivement 1,8 μm2 versus 1,1 μm2 La maturation cérébrale se traduit par une décroissance de I’ADC en fonction du terme dans les sites en cours de myélinisation (pons postérieur, pédoncule cérébral). L’ADC de la substance blanche frontale, du centre semi-ovale et de la substance blanche occipitale, non myélinisés dans l’intervalle des termes étudiés, varie peu. La précision et la reproductibilité de la mesure de la FA est moindre que chez le nouveau-né. Cependant elle montre des corrélations intéressantes avec le terme au niveau des faisceaux organisées de substance blanche, et cela avant le début de toute myélinisation visible. L’utilisation des nouvelles séquences d’IRM et de nouvelles antennes pourraient permettre de surmonter ce problème. Cette étude est un préalable à l’application de la technique à la pathologie foetale.

Download or read book Pediatric Neuroimaging written by A. James Barkovich and published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. This book was released on 2012-02-20 with total page 3865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thoroughly updated Fifth Edition of Pediatric Neuroimaging is a highly illustrated text-reference that describes and illustrates the full range of pediatric disorders diagnosable by modern neuroimaging. Covering the diagnosis of brain, spinal, and head and neck disorders in the pediatric patient, the text is rooted in the principle that the proper interpretation of studies requires the acquisition of high-quality images and an understanding of the basic concepts of neuroembryology, normal development, and pathophysiology. Much coverage is given to the disorders seen in everyday practice. The emphasis is on CT and MRI, which are the optimal imaging modalities in children. The first two chapters describe useful imaging techniques in this patient population and the imaging manifestations of normal development, to distinguish that from manifestations of disease. The final ten chapters of the book are divided by groups of diseases, with numerous drawings and images that illuminate the underlying pathologic and embryologic/genetic bases of each disorder. The goal is provide a basic approach to groups of diseases, then offer detailed information about the clinical manifestations, underlying biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics and/or pathology of specific disorders. The book incorporates the essential concepts for obtaining good images and understanding normal development, which helps the reader to distinguish normal developmental changes from disease

Download or read book The Osteology of Infants and Children written by Brenda J. Baker and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most archaeologists and bioarchaeologists receive little or no training in the recognition of skeletal remains of fetuses, infants, and children. Yet many research sites may contain such materials. Without a framework for identifying the bones or the excavation techniques suited to their recovery, archaeologists may often overlook subadult skeletal remains or even confuse them with animal bones. The Osteology of Infants and Children fills the need for a field and lab manual on this important topic and provides a supplemental textbook for human osteology courses. Focusing on juvenile skeletons, their recovery and identification, and siding in both field and lab settings, the volume provides basic descriptions and careful illustrations of each skeletal element at varying stages of development, along with sections on differentiation from other bones and siding tips. The book offers detailed treatment of the skull and teeth, including the cranial vault and facial bones, and examines the infracranial skeleton: vertebrae, pelvis, chest, shoulders, arms, hands, legs, and feet. A quick reference guide explains age estimation and identification templates. The illustrations are enhanced by photographs from two recent archaeology projects in Egypt, at Abydos and Dakhleh Oasis. The extensive collection of fetal and child remains from these sites provides new reference material unavailable in previous publications, making this manual an unparalleled resource in the field of physical anthropology.

Download or read book Surgical Neuroangiography written by Alejandro Berenstein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Volume 5 of Surgical Neuroangiography we will discuss indications and approaches for endovascular treatment of disorders affecting the spine and spinal cord circulations. Our approach is similar to those discussed in volume 2 and 4, it requires integration of knowledge concerning functional vascular anatomy, lesion angioarchitecture, and the relationship between normal and pathological circulations. In AVMs these features are considered as they relate to the clinical presen tation, progression, and natural history of the lesion. All these factors must then be combined with an understanding of technical capabilities to for mulate a pretherapeutic plan designed to favorably affect the long term out come in the individual patient. Endovascular surgery of spinal cord AVMs has become the treatment of choice, while microsurgery is reserved for those cases where embolization fails. Endovascular surgery may be the sole form of treatment, or may be combined with other therapeutic modalities including surgery, chemothera py, or radiation in cases of neoplasms, or may be palliative, to decrease pain or spinal cord compression. As in all other areas a multidisciplinary ap proach is essential for decision making to best accomplish the desired ob jectives.
