Fetal Neurology, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive and clinically oriented overview of the developing fetal nervous system.
This updated edition reflects major advances in prenatal imaging and neuroscience, emphasizing the integration of structural and functional assessment of the fetal central nervous system.
With extensive use of 2D, 3D, and 4D ultrasound, the book highlights fetal neurobehavior as a key indicator of neurological integrity. Special focus is placed on the Kurjak Antenatal Neurodevelopmental Test (KANET), a simple, reproducible, and clinically applicable tool for routine prenatal neurological assessment.
The volume covers embryology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, vascular development, genetics, neuromuscular disorders, and the continuity between fetal, neonatal, and adult neurology.
Written by internationally recognized experts, this book is an essential reference for obstetricians, perinatologists, neurologists, radiologists, and all professionals involved in prenatal and perinatal care.
