[tab] [content title="Summary"] The second edition of *OCT and Imaging in Central Nervous System Diseases* presents the latest state-of-the-art advances in optical coherence tomography (OCT) regarding neuronal loss in the retina. It provides detailed information on OCT imaging and its interpretation for assessing disease progression in various neurodegenerative disorders, as well as serving as a biological marker of neuroaxonal injury. The book covers conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, intracranial hypertension, Friedreich’s ataxia, schizophrenia, hereditary optic neuropathies, glaucoma, and amblyopia, offering insights into their effects on the retina and optic nerve. Specific chapters are also dedicated to OCT techniques, new OCT technologies in neuro-ophthalmology, OCT and pharmacological treatments, and the use of OCT in animal models. Like the first edition, this book serves as an excellent and richly illustrated reference for diagnosing many retinal diseases and monitoring both surgical and medical treatments. OCT enables the study of vision from the retina to the optic tracts. Retinal axons in the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) are unmyelinated until they pass through the lamina cribrosa, making the RNFL an ideal structure for visualizing processes of neurodegeneration, neuroprotection, or regeneration. By demonstrating how OCT provides crucial information on central nervous system diseases, this book convincingly shows that the eye is truly a "window to the brain."[/content] [content title="Content"] [/content] [content title="Author(s)"] [/content] [/tab]
