MedicalImaginginClinicaltrialsIn the last few years the use of medical imaging has increased exponentially in routine clinical practice. This has been reflected in a rapidly increasing use of medical imaging in clinical trials, through all phases. More recently this has culminated in a number of inter-disciplinary mee-tings with the various stake holders, including the FDA. Changes in the regulatory process has resulted, when it comes to the submission of data to the FDA, in a therapeutic agent where one or more of the trial end-points is the assessment of a radiological end-point. No longer is it sufficient to have the images read by the local investigator site.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging is already the gold-standard for detection and differential diagnosis of cerebral diseases in pediatric patients. However, due to the increasing availability of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and the ongoing discussion on radiation exposure especially of pediatric patients in CT imaging, MR imaging studies in pediatric patients become more and more common in the body area, as well.

Pseudo-NeurologicdisordersA Clinician’s Guide

Pseudo-neurologic disorders (PNDs) are clinical complaints most often mistaken as signs of known neurological disease or injuries, such as epi-lepsy, movement disorders, cognitive disorders, neurotoxic exposures, and various pain syndro-mes. They are not distinct unified diseases and in the extant literature they are variously referred to as pseudo-seizures, non-epileptic seizures, psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNEs), non-epileptic attach disorders, hysterical fits, functio-nal movement disorders, psychogenic movement disorders, psychigenic pain disorder, conversion disorder, and approximately 15 other synonyms. The clinical phenomenon of the PNDs has a long and fascinating history and fired the imagination of all of the seminal 19th and early 20th century pioneers of modern neurology and psychiatry; Charcot, Freud, Breuer, Janet, and others.

Mini-invasivesurgeryofthehipThe mini-invasive surgery has become in recent years a practical necessity for reducing the risk of infection, the importance of blood loss and volume of implants. At the hip it became neces-sary to make small incisions requiring the use of appropriate equipment combined with the full knowledge of the local anatomy. Mini-invasive surgery requires the surgeon to perfectly set up the indications for surgery and to know the exact loco-regional anatomy unique to each patient he treats. Methods must be very precise and deserve visual explanations to help teach the young sur-geon. In this book, the different surgical approa-ches to the hip are presented in terms of their anatomical specifications and indications. Films of these different operations were performed by international specialist authors and some of these images are used to explain the surgical technique described in the book.

ConnectivetissuediseaseinClinicalPracticeConnective Tissue Diseases (CTDs) are often still poorly understood and always difficult to manage, however, they are now starting to become increasingly recognised. A CTD is any disease that has the connective tissues of the body as a primary target of pathology, and since these types of tissue include any kind of biological tissue with an extensive extra-cellular matrix that supports, binds together or protects organs, CTDs can prove constantly problematic. Many connective tissue diseases feature abnormal immune system activity, with inflammation in tissues as a result of an immune system that is directed against one‘s own body tissues (autoimmunity). Connective tissue diseases can be sometimes caused by environ-mental factors, and can also have strong or weak inheritance risks.

Within the industry, everybody is talking about it and keen to get involved, with societies springing and other surgeons desperate to learn the practices. NOTES is a definite growth industry and since a reasonable amount has already occurred in the field, it is a development that is here to stay. With such exponential growth in the field already, it‘s only a matter of time before someone publishes the first comprehensive title on this subject as, to date, nothing exists currently. The quick release of such an important book will distinguish Sprin-ger as truly being on the cutting-edge of clinical medicine, and establish us as publishing pioneers in a rapidly growing field.
