New York/Stuttgart –Thieme is proud to announce that Neurointerventional Techniques: Tricks of the Trade, by L. Fernando Gonzalez, Felipe C. Albuquerque, and Cameron McDougall, has won Highly Commended in the Neurology category at the 2015 British Medical Association’s Medical Book Awards ceremony recently held in London. Through this competition the BMA aims to foster and reward excellence in medical publishing.

Neurointerventional Techniques: Tricks of the Trade is a practical reference that includes core procedures used in the growing neurointerventional subspecialty. The step-by-step, concise presentation of procedures along with original line drawings and high-quality images concisely distill a wealth of information, making it easy for both novice and expert neurointerventionists to review how procedures are performed. The book includes over 50 specific procedures as well as important chapters on access points, physiological testing, and pharmacology in the endovascular suite.

Tim Hiscock, Executive Editor at Thieme New York, commented: “I am very pleased that Neurointerventional Techniques: Tricks of the Trade has been honored with this distinction by the BMA - it is a richly deserved award for a book that is a great addition to Thieme’s neurosurgery collection.”
