Microsurgery for Cerebral Ischemia

Microsurgery for Cerebral Ischemia edited by S.J. Peerless, C.W. McCormick.

In June 1973, Professor George Austin invited a small group of neuroscientists from Asia, Europe, the United States, and Canada to the Loma Linda University School of Medicine in Loma Linda, California. The fundamental technique of fashioning a small vessel collateral to the brain had been pioneered...
