CRC Press (Verlag)
978-0-367-38996-3 (ISBN)
Standing alone as the first definitive and comprehensive book on the subject, this guide describes the most recent studies on the brain-gut connection and psychosocial issues related to patients experiencing visceral pain. Bringing together leading experts from the top-tiers of the science, this source provides 33 engaging chapters and spans basic concepts in pharmacology, neurobiology, physiology, and psychology to provide a practical approach to the treatment of chronic pain.
Examining a condition that affects up to 25% of the general U.S. population, this source is the only book on the subject to cover both clinical syndromes and neurobiology…ranges from basic mechanisms to diagnosis and clinical treatment of specific syndromes including inflammatory bowel disease, functional abdominal pain, dyspepsia, non-cardiac chest pain, and pelvic pain syndromes…analyzes the latest scientific advances including the role of functional imaging in patient care…integrates fundamental scientific concepts with a practical clinical approach…and supplies 250 figures, and more than 16 color photographs.
