These innovative technologies offer exciting possibilities in the medical field, owing to their low-cost, portability and safety. Hence their contribution to reduce the mortality and permanent injuries is expected to become important in the future. The book will specifically address cerebrovascular diseases (such as stroke, ischemia, haemorrhage, vasospasm), which have an ever-increasing societal relevance of to the ageing of population, describing the potential of innovative techniques, such as microwave imaging. Moreover, it will present innovative modalities for treatment of brain tumours jointly using electromagnetic fields and nano-composites, as well as monitoring brain temperature during surgery. Finally it will address the perspectives that arise from multi-modal multi-spectral EM modalities, which make a synergic use of the different portions of the EM spectrum. All chapters in the book present examples of electromagnetic technologies and their applications to the diagnostic, the monitoring and the treatment of brain diseases, illustrating the capabilities, the experiments and the outcome of clinical trials. With the aim of making the book broadly accessible to interested scholars coming from different areas and experiences (which is expected, given the multi-disciplinarity of the subject), some chapters provide an insight in some fundamental aspects of the treated topic. For instance, the physiology of cerebrovascular diseases, the clinical challenges to be faced in neurointensive care and the emergent needs are revised. Also, the physics underlying the adoption of microwave technologies in diagnostics and monitoring, its potential as well as the limitations of this technology are revised. The book gathers contributions from the researchers with different background, thus a multidisciplinary and up-to-date overview of the state-of-the-art in this emerging field. 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aNeuroradiology 606 $aMedical physics 606 $aRadiation 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aImage processing 606 $aSpeech processing systems 606 $aNeurology  606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700X 606 $aNeuroradiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H2903X 606 $aMedical and Radiation Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27060 606 $aSignal, Image and Speech Processing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051 606 $aNeurology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 0$aNeuroradiology. 615 0$aMedical physics. 615 0$aRadiation. 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aImage processing. 615 0$aSpeech processing systems. 615 0$aNeurology . 615 14$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 615 24$aNeuroradiology. 615 24$aMedical and Radiation Physics. 615 24$aSignal, Image and Speech Processing. 615 24$aNeurology. 676 $a616.8047572 702 $aCrocco$b Lorenzo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKaranasiou$b Irene$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJames$b Michael L$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aConceição$b Raquel Cruz$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299956303321 996 $aEmerging Electromagnetic Technologies for Brain Diseases Diagnostics, Monitoring and Therapy$92521991 997 $aUNINA
