Health Transitions in Arctic Populations

By: Peter Bjerregaard (M.D.)

The Arctic regions are inhabited by diverse populations, both indigenous and non-indigenous. Health Transitions in Arctic Populations describes and explains changing health patterns in these areas, how particular patterns came about, and what can be done to improve the health of Arctic peoples. This study correlates changes in health status with major environmental, social, economic, and political changes in the Arctic. T. Kue Young and Peter Bjerregaard seek commonalities in the experiences of different peoples while recognizing their considerable diversity. They focus on five Arctic regions - Greenland, Northern Canada, Alaska, Arctic Russia, and Northern Fennoscandia, offering a general overview of the geography, history, economy, population characteristics, health status, and health services of each. The discussion moves on to specific indigenous populations (Inuit, Dene, and Sami), major health determinants and outcomes, and, finally, an integrative examination of what can be done to improve the health of circumpolar peoples. Health Transitions in Arctic Populations offers both an examination of key health issues in the north and a vision for the future of Arctic inhabitants.

Cardiovascular MRI

150 Multiple-Choice Questions and Answers

By: Peter G. Danias

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) is a rapidly evolving imaging technology and is now increasingly utilized in patient care. Its advantages are noninvasiveness, superb image resolutions, and body tissue characterization. CMR is now an essential part of both cardiology and radiology training and has become part of the examination for Board certification. This book provides a condensed but comprehensive and reader friendly educational tool for cardiology fellows and radiology residents. It contains multiple choice questions similar to board examinations with concise comment and explanation about the correct answer.

Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract

By: Peter Draganov,Takuji Gotoda,Dennis Yang

Surgery has traditionally been the standard of care for the treatment of neoplastic lesions in the gastrointestinal tract. With advances in endoscopic resection techniques, there has been a paradigm shift in how to approach many of these precancerous and early cancerous lesions. Potential advantages of endoscopic resection include its minimally invasiveness which often translates into quicker patient recovery. In recent years, there have been major strides in safety and efficacy of minimally invasive endoscopic approaches with ongoing advances in therapeutic endoscopy. Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract by Drs. Peter V. Draganov, Takuji Gotoda, and Dennis J. Yang provides an in-depth analysis of the current state of advanced endoscopic techniques for the evaluation and resection in the gastrointestinal tract. Each chapter in the book addresses specific topics such as: endoscopic evaluation of lesions technical aspects of the procedure management of adverse events post-procedural care and follow-up Advanced Techniques for Endoscopic Resection in the GI Tract provides a comprehensive review of all the different aspects of advanced endoscopic resection in the gastrointestinal tract which makes it ideal for interventional GI endoscopists and general gastroenterologists, as well as surgeons.

The Circumpolar Inuit

Health, Population and Arctic Adaptation

By: Peter Bjerregaard,Peter Bjerregaard (M.D.),T. Kue Young

As in previous editions, the aim of the third edition of this book is to provide guidance on the diagnosis and management of ocular motility disorders which is based on clinical experience. This edition sees a new team of authors who have kept very much to this principle in their nevertheless thorough revisionof the book. All chapters have been comprehensively revised and updated and a new chapter on an 'Introduction to concomitant strabismus'has been added. The immediate impact of this extensive revision can be seen in the improved page layout with increased use of diagrams and tables. There are also new sections on feigned visual loss in adults and children, and the management of residual defects, whilst the section on botulinum toxin treatment has been completely rewritten to take account of the great advances in this form of treatment.
