White Matter and Disease

This book is not only aiming to give information in a new way, quality, or quantity as it aims to expand our horizon and understanding of the role of brain in controlling the body and keeping and protecting of diseases. We have found and confirmed that molecular changes and events precede the occurrence of clinical onsets of diseases including diabetes, neurological disorders and may be cancers. I wanted to stimulate and motivate researchers, scientists, engineers in medical fields to simulate such diseases as alterations in white matter functions to predict diseases at an early period. The idea of having time before the disease had appeared provides the possibility to design appropriate intervention programs to help patients in the most effective means.
