About the book
Neurosurgery Infographics, also known as The Infographic Guide to Neurosurgery, is a visual companion for learning the field. Each entry compresses a neurosurgical disease, workup, or procedure into a single peer-reviewed image, paired with embedded video to anchor the concept in real clinical and operative footage.
The collection covers the most common conditions of the brain, spine, and peripheral nerve, built specifically for the rhythm of ward rounds, pre-op review, and short study windows between cases. Designed for visual learners and trainees who want the highest-yield takeaway in the time it takes to read a single page.
What's inside
100 visual abstracts
One hundred peer-reviewed infographics, each distilling a single neurosurgical condition or operation into a high-yield page.
Brain
Cerebrovascular disease, neuro-oncology, neurotrauma, hydrocephalus, and functional disorders of the cranium.
Spine
Degenerative, deformity, oncologic, and traumatic spinal disease with focused operative takeaways.
Peripheral nerve
Entrapment, traumatic injury, and tumor pathology of the peripheral nervous system in concise visual form.
Embedded video
Operative and didactic clips embedded alongside each abstract: see the procedure, then read the page.
Peer-reviewed
Every abstract is reviewed by subspecialty experts before publication, giving trainees a trusted single-page reference.
Pre-operative ready
Format optimized for the night-before-the-case review: anatomy, indications, steps, and pitfalls at a glance.
Built for visual learners
Image-first design that frontloads pattern recognition, the way clinicians actually think about diagnosis and operative planning.
MedOne integration
Hosted alongside Thieme's broader neurosurgical library on the MedOne platform for searchable, on-demand access.
