By Tim Tinius Pa and Tim Tinius

Book Overview

One-of-a-kind systematic research information about hemoencephalography Hemoencephalography, literally a blood brain picture, is now an exciting new therapeutic possibility on the medical horizon. New Developments in Blood Flow Hemoencephalography examines the systematic study and findings on brain blood flow feedback and its possibilities in medical treatment. Neurofeedback with this technique gives clinicians and researchers another method to measure brain functioning and subsequently may allow a person to positively affect their blood flow via self-monitoring. Potential applications may include treating disorders from migraine headaches and sports injuries to learning disabilities and affective disorders. New Developments in Blood Flow Hemoencephalography presents studies that explain the imaging technology, examine its validity and reliability, describe its many applications, and most importantly, show how this technique can be applied to a wide variety of central nervous symptoms that many clinicians see on a daily basis. Noted experts present research studies that lay the groundwork for further structured and controlled studies. This important research and educational source is packed with full color images, comprehensive reference lists, and detailed tables to clearly illustrate data. New Developments in Blood Flow Hemoencephalography topics include: using hemoencephalography as an efficient brain exercise therapy to increase oxygenation of selected brain tissue exploring hemispheric differences in infrared brain emissions passive infrared hemoencephalography--a treatment study of one hundred migraine sufferers over four years th effects of hemoencephalographic training at three prefrontal locations upon EEG ratios at CZ hemoencephalography as a new therapy for ADHD--a case report New Developments in Blood Flow Hemoencephalography is cutting-edge research essential for clinicians, neurotherapists, researchers, educators, students, and health care professionals interested in the latest information on brain blood flow feedback.
