Multiple sclerosis is the most common cause of neurological disability in young and middle-aged adults. This fully updated and revised new edition provides a detailed account of the many neuropsychiatric disorders associated with MS and is relevant to both the research and the clinical setting. Using the latest brain imaging findings and results from treatment trials, the symptoms, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of depression in MS are covered, as are psychosocial factors and the link between depression and MRI abnormalities. Subsequent chapters focus on cognitive dysfunction in MS, including the natural history of cognitive change, the use of screening instruments and neuropsychological batteries, brain imaging correlations and management strategies. The book concludes with a survey of the behavioral benefits and risks associated with disease-modifying drugs. It will be valuable to all mental health professionals, neurologists, and others caring for those affected by MS.

Quelle est la place, aujourd'hui, de l'électroencéphalographie ? Non invasif et peu coûteux, l'EEG rend compte de l'activité électrique cérébrale du patient à l'instant même où elle est enregistrée et apporte une analyse immédiate du fonctionnement correct du cerveau ou de son atteinte. Sa place dans l'étude du sommeil est primordiale. L'EEG nécessite un minimum de compréhension des principes physiques et des techniques d'enregistrement des rythmes cérébraux et du sommeil. Cet ouvrage a été conçu chapitre par chapitre pour familiariser le lecteur à l'intérêt de l'EEG dans le diagnostic des épilepsies, des complications neurologiques des maladies systémiques, des encéphalopathies, de l'éthylisme, de la grossesse et des effets médicamenteux, des traumatismes crâniens en phase aiguë et chronique. Le rôle médico-légal de l'EEG dans l'anoxie et la mort cérébrale et son aide dans le diagnostic des démences sont également détaillés. L'étude du sommeil des maladies dégénératives est particulièrement développée. Les maladies pour lesquelles l'EEG offre un supplément d'information par rapport à l'imagerie en cas de crises épileptiques, de confusion ou de troubles de la vigilance sont exposées. Une partie est consacrée à l'intérêt de l'EEG en psychiatrie. Enfin, l'ouvrage détaille l'usage de l'EEG lors d'événements transitoires comme la migraine, l'ictus amnésique, la plongée, la privation sensorielle et lors des états volontairement modifiés de la conscience (biofeedback, méditation, hypnose).
