This book for the first time summarises the "state of the art" in this field. A team of eminent clinicians, neurologists and researchers provide an up-to-the-minute account of all aspects of stroke and cerebrovascular disease in children, ranging from a historical perspective to future directions, through epidemiology, the latest neuroimaging techniques, neurodevelopment, co-morbidities, diagnosis and treatment. The authors? practical approach to the clinical problems makes this essential reading for practising clinicians. It will also be of interest to researchers in the field"--Page 4 of cover |
