Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Clinician’s Guide to Headache: Head, Neck, and Face Pain Syndromes is a clinically focused, case-based reference for neurologists, headache specialists, pain physicians, trainees, and allied clinicians caring for patients with head, neck, and facial pain. Rather than relying only on conventional disease-based descriptions, it reflects the realities of everyday practice: complex and overlapping syndromes, diagnostic uncertainty, secondary causes, comorbidities, and rapidly changing therapeutic options. Organized around real clinical scenarios, the book covers the full breadth of headache medicine, from classification, anatomy, history taking, examination, and pathophysiology to migraine, trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias, cranial neuralgias, CSF pressure disorders, neurovascular and inflammatory diseases, infections, metabolic causes, epilepsy-related headache, sleep-related disorders, ophthalmic presentations, pediatric headache, neck pain, and facial pain. Foundational sciences, such as anatomy, neuroradiology, pharmacology, and pathophysiology, are presented in a practical, case-oriented manner to support bedside decision-making. The text also addresses the important frontiers in modern headache care, biologics, percutaneous interventions, implantable and noninvasive neuromodulation, and integrative strategies, such as yoga, meditation, and nutrition. With contributions from an international faculty, this volume provides a pragmatic, modern, and multidisciplinary approach to one of the most challenging areas in clinical neuroscience
