Now in its 3rd edition with new and revised content! This book is the premier resource for interpretation of computed tomography (CT) for non-radiologists! This book provides a basic introduction to the interpretation of CT imaging for non-radiology medical professionals. The book covers the fundamentals of CT diagnosis, including the key findings to make diagnoses, relevant anatomy, pathology and current treatments. The authors also provide guidance on interpreting CT images, with chapters devoted to specific anatomical regions, such as the head, neck, chest, spine, abdomen, and pelvis. The book emphasizes the power of CT imaging to diagnose pathology which directs treatment planning. Overall, CT for the Non-Radiologist serves as the essential resource for medical professionals who may encounter CT images in their practice but do not have specialized training in radiology. This is the Essential CT Study Guide!

The first edition of this book was a groundbreaking, research-based clinical guide to the neurofeedback treatment of ADHD. This second edition maintains this high standard and has been extensively revised and expanded to include new research, an extensive number of new images, tables, and graphs (some in full color!), and innovative clinical concepts and issues. The author provides an expert overview of ADHD in terms of large scale brain networks and dysfunctional mechanisms of attention, vigilance, self-regulation, and executive functions. The most common forms of neurofeedback to treat ADHD are detailed, including traditional amplitude neurofeedback, LORETA neurofeedback, and slow cortical potential neurofeedback.Neurofeedback is a psychophysiological treatment that normalizes the deviant brainwave activity. The author explains how neurofeedback for ADHD specifically strengthens "self-regulation" through improved balance within specific brain regions and networks; these gains in self-regulation abilities result in restored vigilance with enhanced metastability. In short, neurofeedback for ADHD is a non-drug treatment that fosters vigilance and self-regulation in ADHD.Werner Van den Bergh is neurologist and psychiatrist in Leuven, Belgium where he founded "Centrum Vigilant." Dr. Van den Bergh has specialized in a clinical-behavioral-neurological approach of ADHD since 1995, and he published several books and articles on this topic, including the first edition of this book entitled, "Neurofeedback and State Regulation in ADHD: A Therapy Without Medication." He teaches QEEG for the Flemish Psychiatric Association in Belgium, and he is the co-founder of the Flemish self-support association for adults with ADHD.
