"Spinal Cord Medicine" is the perfect resource for the medical specialist treating persons with spinal cord injuries. This comprehensive and practical resource provides detail about all aspects of spinal cord injury and disease. The initial seven chapters present the history, anatomy, imaging, epidemiology, and general acute management of spinal cord injury. The next eleven chapters deal with medical aspects of spinal cord damage, such as pulmonary management and the neurogenic bladder. Chapters on rehabilitation are followed by nine chapters dealing with diseases that cause non-traumatic spinal cord injury. A comprehensive imaging chapter is included with 30 figures which provide the reader with an excellent resource to understand the complex issues of imaging the spine and spinal cord. Key chapters discuss the consequences of spinal cord injury and the many approaches that can help patients return to the fullest possible participation in life. Not only is there a discussion of recreational and therapeutic exercise, but also an entire chapter is devoted to the assessment of a patient's ability to drive. The thorough discussion on the anatomy and mechanics of the spine include detailed drawings and postmortem specimens which clearly illustrate the critical anatomical components of spinal integrity and the ways in which spinal stability can be compromised by trauma or disease.
