It is well recognized that there is an intimate and reciprocal interaction between epilepsy and sleep. The book, Epilepsy and Sleep is a ground-breaking, comprehensive source for exploring this correlation and is especially timely because of the considerable growth in the understanding of the physiology underlying both sleep and epilepsy. An insightful reference, it presents many of the complex physiologic mechanisms underlying epilepsy--sleep interaction and highlights sleeping disorder symptoms that may be related to epilepsy.The annual cost of treating epilepsy in the United States is an estimated $12.5 billion, according to a report issued January 2000 by The Epilepsy Foundation. The Foundation also reports that more than 180,000 Americans develop epilepsy each year. However, thousands more cases may be misdiagnosed as sleeping disorders, causing these figures to jump significantly. This correlation and diagnosis can help determine the correct type of medication to administer to regulate the symptoms, in turn saving hundreds of hours of lost time at work and millions of dollars.- Provides the first comprehensive source of information available on the correlation between epilepsy and sleep- Outlines sleeping disorder symptoms which may in fact be caused by epilepsy- Well illustrated, easy-to-read text- An essential text for epileptologists, psychiatrists, physicians, and sleep disorder therapists- Written by internationally recognized experts in the field

Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the oldest neurophysiological techniques used to evaluate brain activity and is a cornerstone of technical diagnostics in neurology. The technical advancement of electroencephalography in the last few decades, however, asks for a new approach to EEG reading. This textbook and atlas provides a systematic approach to normal and abnormal EEG patterns, serving as an instructional guide for the beginner in EEG and an essential reference for the experienced EEG reader. Containing about 400 figures illustrating typical EEG patterns which are also available online in reformatted referential and bipolar montages, this book covers how electrical waves are generated into the brain, the equipment required to record electrical brain waves (including the set-up of EEG machines, electrodes, and procedures), biological and non-biological disturbances called artifacts in EEG recordings, and differentiation of normal and abnormal patterns in EEG. The reader will be introduced to a systematic analysis of EEG interpretation by defining the characteristics of the EEG patterns (polarity, localization, frequency, modulation etc.) and their clinical meaning, making this an essential text that should be on the bookshelf of every medical professional using EEG.

Textbook of Epilepsy Surgery covers all of the latest advances in the surgical management of epilepsy. The book provides a better understanding of epileptogenic mechanisms in etiologically different types of epilepsy and explains neuronavigation systems. It discusses new neuroimaging techniques, new surgical strategies, and more aggressive surgical approaches in cases with catastrophic epilepsies. The contributors also analyze the improved statistics of surgical outcome in different epilepsy types. This definitive textbook is an invaluable reference for neurologists, neurosurgeons, epilepsy specialists, and those interested in epilepsy and its surgical treatment.

Deep brain stimulation has been used effectively for many years to treat patients suffering from Parkinson''s disease. Now, neurologists and neurosurgeons are using electric pulse generators to block abnormal activity, i.e. epileptic fits. Promising research results indicate that electric pulses implanted deep in the brain can affect neurocircuitry and help stop oncoming seizures. Supplying a solid background on brain stimulation and its application to epilepsy, Deep Brain Stimulation and Epilepsy provides a historical overview, explores pathogenesis of brain stimulation, discusses animal experiments and human studies, and explores future prospects of brain stimulation for epileptic control. The editor and his team of contributors distill information drawn directly from the literature into one convenient resource.

Textbook of Epilepsy Surgery covers all of the latest advances in the surgical management of epilepsy. The book provides a thorough understanding of epileptogenic mechanisms in etiologically different types of epilepsy and explains neuronavigation systems. It discusses new neuroimaging techniques, new surgical strategies, and more aggressive surgical approaches in cases with catastrophic epilepsies. The contributors also analyze the improved statistics of surgical outcome in different epilepsy types.The book follows a systematic approach to the diagnostic evaluation of patients who are candidates for epilepsy surgery. It first discusses the general principles of surgery, and then describes the presurgical evaluation according to the six zones (symptomatogenic, irritative, ictal onset, epileptic lesion, functional deficit, and epileptogenic zone). This series of chapters concludes with the description of the Epilepsy Surgery Management Meeting, an essential and indispensable part of the surgical evaluation.The book next incorporates detailed discussions of the cortical mapping techniques and the numerous surgical techniques. This is followed by the post-surgical medical management and a discussion of the surgical outcome. Finally, selected case studies are presented, along with protocols for the storage and processing of brain tissue for molecular studies. This definitive textbook is an invaluable reference for neurologists, neurosurgeons, epilepsy specialists, and those interested in epilepsy and its surgical treatment.
