239 Clinical Case Studies of Electro Acupuncture by Voll (Eav), Homeopathic and Natural Remedies
This work is a continuation of Dr. Grigorova's previous book Electro Acupuncture by Voll (EAV) and Homeopathy (2012), Milkana publishing, Santa Clara, CA, USA, which examines in detail the method of Dr. Reinhold Voll and how to use it to test for allergies and pathogens in humans and provides valuable tables with the best homeopathic remedies for curing of these allergies and pathogens. This new book is a practical application of Dr. Reinhold Voll's achievements in diagnostics and treatments based on balancing the energy state of human body organs. The book presents many clinical cases based on patients Dr. Grigorova has tested by the Voll method and successfully treated with classical homeopathic remedies, vibrationally prepared medications and herbal formulas selected by the Voll test. Of the total 239 clinical cases reported, there were 84 treatments for viral etiology, 76 cases of bacterial pathogens, 19 cases covering fungal infections, and 60 clinical cases describing parasitic infections. They demonstrated the following: 1. Diagnosis can be achieved in a radical new way, without human blood and secretion samples and without invasive tests and painful manipulations, by physically detecting the organism's and present pathogens' vibrational states.2. Effective and gentle treatment based on the energy principle can be applied for any known microscopic or larger pathogenic organism.3. It is possible to test and find treatment medication, resonant with a pathogen's vibrational frequency characteristics even when the pathogen is unknown or unclassified. The English language edition is divided into two volumes. The first presents the theory of the Voll method and 84 clinical cases with viral etiology including Human Papilloma, Hepatitis, Cytomegalovirus, Coxsackie, Epstein-Bar and other viral infections like Poliomyelitis, Rabies, Molluscum Contagiosum, Adenoviruses, Rotaviruses, Herpes and SARS-COV-2. The second volume covers bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections. The theoretical part shows that the Voll method is based on the contemporary knowledge of quantum physics applied on the interactions between the cells, the organs and the systems of the human body. At the heart of all reasoning in this book lies the philosophy and ideas of modern quantum physics-everything in our known world is vibration, energy and information. The physical objects, as well as the human body, exchange energy and information with the environment through vibrations. Any energy and information disorders can be efficiently corrected on a vibrational principal, with medications delivering frequencies resonant with the body according to its particular energy needs at the moment. The viral infections and their treatment are a very important problem, which has become evident with the latest viral illness invasion, COVID-19. The problem is the same for other viral infections known today: There are not enough antiviral medications. The Voll method, on the other hand, offers diagnostics of the type of the viruses (using testers) and an opportunity to find specific medicine and the best vitamins and supplements for each patient with viral infection. It can really be a potent tool in fighting infections such as COVID-19.
Electro Acupuncture by Voll (Eav) and Homeopathy
N. Grigorova, Ph.D., is a chemist, homeopath, and pharmacist. The book summarizes 11 years of her work as a naturopathic practitioner in Africa where she explored the action of a number of homeopathic remedies on different pathogens while testing patients with the Voll method. If you are a homeopath and would like to learn more about the effect of homeopathic remedies on bacteria, viruses, and protozoa, you might be inspired by what you find in the tables included in this book. If you are a doctor of naturopathic medicine and would like to uncover and treat the underlying causes of your patients' allergies, then have a look at the chapters on allergic disorders and bacterial pathogens. If you are a medical doctor and are looking for the etiology of unexplained symptoms, you might be intrigued by the chapters on viruses and fungal pathogens.

A Daily Prescription for Natural Health
It has long been known, that everything that affects the body affects the mind. And everything that affects the mind affects the body. Our being operates between two major points, consciousness in the mind, and chemistry in the body. Disharmony in the mind promotes disharmony in the body. Harmony in the mind supports harmony in the body. It is one's consciousness that runs the body, not one's body running the mind. If you doubt this, try moving any part of your body without your mind. If you want to have a way to connect directly to your mind, the Kelee will show you; by learning how to get out of the lesser Kelee and the brain, into the greater Kelee and the mind. This is done by doing Kelee meditation, it is by balancing your mind-body connection, that Kelee meditation becomes your prescription for daily health.
Tongue Diagnosis, Visible Responses to Pathology
Ann Cecil-Sterman is an acupuncturist clinician, teacher, and author of the acclaimed books, Advanced Acupuncture and The Art of Pulse Diagnosis. Tongue Diagnosis, Visible Responses to Pathology contains a detailed, step-by-step exploration of the energetics of internal health and shows how that leads to a method of tongue diagnosis, useful for any style of Chinese medicine practice and invaluable for telemedicine. The aim of this book is to convey the principles of diagnosis rather than require memorization of tongue presentations. In this way any tongue viewed can be approached step-by-step, leading to an insightful and accurate diagnosis. Tongue Diagnosis includes discussions and analysis of tongue shape, length, moisture, texture, color, coverage, coat, spots, froth, lines, cracks, thorns, eruptions, hollows, trapped heat, pulse vectors, sublingual veins, and organ function, all as described on the tongue. Much of this material appears in print for the first time including discussion of tongue diagnostics for all the channels of acupuncture, including Primary channels and the complement channels: the Eight Extraordinary, Divergent, Luo, and Sinew meridians. Throughout the theory, case studies, and frequently asked questions, there are methodical protocols that can deeply inform everyone's practice, from beginners to advanced practitioners, and of particular use not only to acupuncturists and herbalists but dietary practitioners, and beyond. The book includes the practice of correlating tongue indicators with advanced dietetics. Tongue Diagnosis contains 306 photographs and 96 diagrams. Designed and illustrated by Cody Dodo. Foreword by Dr. Hung Tran. Printed in the USA, London, or Melbourne. Hard Cover, 202 pages.

Electromagnetics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging
In the past few decades, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has become an indispensable tool in modern medicine, with MRI systems now available at every major hospital in the developed world. But for all its utility and prevalence, it is much less commonly understood and less readily explained than other common medical imaging techniques. Unlike optical, ultrasonic, X-ray (including CT), and nuclear medicine-based imaging, MRI does not rely primarily on simple transmission and/or reflection of energy, and the highest achievable resolution in MRI is orders of magnitude smaller that the smallest wavelength involved. In this book, MRI will be explained with emphasis on the magnetic fields required, their generation, their concomitant electric fields, the various interactions of all these fields with the subject being imaged, and the implications of these interactions to image quality and patient safety. Classical electromagnetics will be used to describe aspects from the fundamental phenomenon of nuclear precession through signal detection and MRI safety. Simple explanations and Illustrations combined with pertinent equations are designed to help the reader rapidly gain a fundamental understanding and an appreciation of this technology as it is used today, as well as ongoing advances that will increase its value in the future. Numerous references are included to facilitate further study with an emphasis on areas most directly related to electromagnetics.
Mitigation of Cancer Therapy Side-Effects with Light
'Light' from low level laser therapy, through a process called photobiomodulation (PBM), has been in existence in supportive care in cancer, in particular in the management of oral mucositis (OM) in patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this book the authors attempt to portray the current status of the supportive care interventions that are possible with PBM using low level laser therapy (LLLT) in patients undergoing cancer treatment for solid tumours, harmatological malignancies, and head and neck cancers.
Vitamin Politics
Millions of Americans are spending billions of dollars each year buying megavitamin supplements in an attempt to prevent or cure physical ailments from the common cold to cancer, avoid mental depression, and starve off the effects of old age. What they don't know is that not only are they wasting their money, but they may be endangering their lives. In Vitamin Politics, John Fried shows how we have been misled and manipulated by vitamin enthusiasts who preach megavitamin therapy for a host of common ills. Operating without a conclusive body of proof, they continue to promote massive doses of vitamins to a willing public that is more interested in miracle cures than in reasoned scientific skepticism and caution. Vitamins taken in megadoses are no longer vitamins--they are drugs. As drugs they can and do have dangerous side effects. Numerous cases have been documented describing the effects suffered by those on megavitamin regimens including lethargy, vomiting, loss of hair, enlarged livers and spleens, and abnormal skull growth. But, Fried found, megavitamin proponents are more interested in publicity than scientific investigation, and vitamin promoters are more involved in the economics of vitamin production than in determining the effects of vitamins taken in large quantities. Vitamin Politics, an update of Fried's classic The Vitamin Conspiracy, combines the misinformation of vitamin faddists and offers a well-reasoned, thoroughly researched report of the facts.
Atlas of Lymphoscintigraphy and Sentinel Node Mapping
The main goal of the second edition of this book is to update the content on the rapidly growing field of lymphoscintigraphy, a radionuclide-based imaging procedure that provides information on the functional status of the lymphatic system. Although the technique was originally introduced to identify the cause of peripheral edema (i.e., blockage of the venous or lymphatic circulation), more recent and widespread applications include radioguided biopsy of the sentinel lymph node in patients with solid cancers. This procedure is crucial for the adequate planning of oncologic surgery in a growing number of cancers, most notably breast cancer, cutaneous melanoma, head and neck cancers, penile cancer, and cervical cancer.The book focuses on the latest advances in lymphoscintigraphy techniques, including both novel tracers recently approved for clinical use (especially in the field of sentinel lymph node mapping) and the expanding role of hybrid imaging with SPECT/CT - and in sentinel node detection using hybrid tracers (radiolabeled and fluorescent) for dual-signature guidance. Each chapter addresses the clinical application of lymphoscintigraphy in different anatomic areas or disease conditions. After an introductory section concerning the pathophysiology of the specific site/disease, the clinical relevance and impact of lymphoscintigraphy is demonstrated by a collection of richly illustrated teaching cases describing the lymphoscintigraphic patterns most commonly observed, as well as anatomic variants and technical pitfalls. Emphasis is placed on tomographic multimodality imaging. The book gathers contributions by experts in nuclear oncology, who have revised their chapters by updating the didactic material and adding clinical cases. Regarding sentinel lymph node biopsy in particular, a major distinction of this text is the incorporation of the staging guidelines of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (8th edition) into the didactic material.

The Min Jie Formulary Companion
There are many gems in the Chinese pharmacopoeia that are hidden in plain view. One of the best ways to grasp these hidden gems is by systematically deconstructing the entire pharmacopoeia and going through a process of discovering how this extraordinary material can organically reassemble itself into different forms.The Min Jie Formulary Companion series is a systematic deconstruction of the Chinese pharmacopoeia based on Category, Taste, Temperature, Territory, Internal Relationships and Number. The first series, of which this is the second part, focuses on the deconstruction and reconstruction of category. This volume focuses on the deconstruction and reconstruction of taste by category.The Min Jie Formulary Companion is useful precisely because the Chinese pharmacopoeia is so gigantic and detailed. This enormity can prevent us from getting to the core of what we seek in the intensity of the clinical moment.The structure of The Min Jie Formulary Companion may break some taboos in the world of traditional Chinese medicine, but putting our pharmacopoeia into a series of new, systematic and coherent forms helps us to locate what we need in that critical clinical moment. It also helps us to make meaningful comparisons between herbs in our process of differentiation when we're prescribing. Moreover, it helps us to make connections between herbs and their functions that we might never arrive at without physically seeing them arranged in a variety of ways. Beyond that, novel organization patterns also help us to undergo a more systematic process of assessing, diagnosing, treating and prescribing with our patients.The current popular structure of the Chinese pharmacopoeia has a definite systemic coherence. Yet it's so complex and esoteric that very few practitioners truly understand or appreciate how it was designed, even though they might use it every working day. One of the main purposes of these deconstructions is to begin to bring to light many of the invisible secrets that are built into the organization of the Chinese pharmacopoeia. It's been my experience that this process can help us to value and respect this information more completely, and ultimately become better practitioners of our medicine.

Stereotactic Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
This book is a comprehensive review of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT): its physics, clinical evidence, indications, and future directions. The utilization of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is increasing internationally because of several factors. First, it offers patients a local treatment option that has demonstrated effectiveness similar to traditional surgery without the morbidity of general anesthesia and open surgical resection. Second, recent advancements in the quality of scientific evidence supporting a SRS or SBRT-containing approach in patients continues to evolve and demonstrate favorable disease-specific outcomes with little, if any, toxicity in various anatomic disease sites and for various conditions including cancer, benign tumors, and other psychiatric and neurologic conditions. Third, and most provocatively, is the notion that definitive local therapy (i.e. SRS or SBRT) in patients with cancer can boost the immune system to fight cancer in other sites throughout the body. While traditional medical knowledge would suggest that all patients with metastatic cancer are incurable, there is a mounting body of evidence that there is a subset of these patients that can be cured with definitive SRS or SBRT. This volume thus delves into each of these benefits and aspects of treatment, guiding physicians to the best treatment plan for their patients. Expert, international authors provide guidelines for SRS and SBRT use by clinicians. Chapters are divided into six main sections: Radiobiology of Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, Intracranial Radiosurgery Technique, Intracranial Radiosurgery by Indication, Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Technique, Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy by Indication, The Future of Radiosurgery and SBRT. Overall physics are explained, as well as specific considerations for particular surgical tools (including the Leksell Gamma Knife and Accuray CyberKnife), techniques (including fractionated and charged particle radiosurgery), and anatomic sites (including brain metastases, pituitary tumors, and the prostate). Detailed images and charts enhance the chapters. This book provides physicians with a single, practical resource incorporating both of these broad categories of treatment, SRS and SBRT, and better defines the current role and the direction of radiosurgery.
