Primer on Cerebrovascular Research provides both clinical and basic cerebrovascular knowledge that is required for physicians, vascular researchers, biomedical students, and trainees to understand or conduct evidence-based clinical practice and cutting-edge experimental research. This book outlines how to a design experimental cerebrovascular research in the context of clinical relevance, conduct the study using proper methods, analyze the data accurately, and make conclusions in an unbiased and statistically correct way. Chapters will include representative examples and experimental protocols.

Presents both basic and clinical knowledge, along with clinical and basic science insights in cerebrovascular diseasesGuides the design, performance, and interpretation of basic cerebrovascular research, including statistical analysis with example cases and hand-on protocols with troubleshooting stepsIntroduces cutting-edge knowledge and emerging technologies of basic cerebrovascular research as well as history and current statusProvides accurate and comprehensive references of key articles and textbooks

The book provides updated knowledge on cerebrovascular imaging-related anatomy and topographic maps for neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, and neurovascular researchers as well as medical or neuroscience students. It includes not only high-resolution cerebrovascular images but also topographic brain maps.The topographic brain maps will provide (a) "recently-updated" knowledge on cerebrovascular territories, which are of key clinical importance in patients with stroke; (b) age-specific WMH maps that allows a "tailored patient-specific" interpretation in stroke- and vascular dementia-related clinical practice; and (c) easy-to-use "reference maps" that allow prompt and reliable visual estimation of cerebral infarct volumes. This pocket book will serve as the best format for these image datasets to be looked up and referenced by the vast majority of readers.Apart from being a handy reference for neurovascular or neuroscience researchers, this book can also be used as a supplementary text book in medical schools.
