Cerebrospinal Fluid and Subarachnoid Space: Volume 1: Clinical Anatomy and Physiology is the first book devoted to the comprehensive clinical anatomy of the cerebrospinal fluid for neurosurgeons, neurologists, and neuroscientists. Knowledge of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the subarachnoid space is necessary for almost all fields of medicine. The book covers a wide swath of topics related to CSF with a focus on topics relevant to neuroscience specialists including researchers, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and neuroradiologists. Topics span from neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, CSF in different disease states and more. Various fresh and fixed cadaveric photographs helps readers obtain a better understanding of anatomy and complications related to CSF. - First comprehensive book devoted to clinical anatomy of cerebrospinal fluid and subarachnoid space - Edited by neuro-anatomists and neurosurgeons, giving it a multimodal perspective - Nerves and vessels color-coded to differentiate from other tissues
