With the advancement of science and technology and the progress of pathobiological research, it has been discovered that the variety of pathogenic microorganisms is increasing, their pathogenic characteristics and responses to drug treatment are constantly changing, bringing many new challenges to clinicians. At the same time, with the progress of central nervous system immunology research, people have gained a deeper understanding of these diseases. Accompanied by the continuous development and application of new diagnostic technologies, the synthesis and promotion of new antimicrobial drugs have enhanced human control over infectious diseases. This book consists of four parts and eighteen chapters. It starts with the biological progress of neurological infections and systematically introduces the physiology, pathology, immunology, and molecular biological detection methods of contemporary neurological infections, the use of antimicrobial drugs, the characteristics, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and treatment techniques of neurological and neurosurgical infectious diseases. This book aims to reflect the achievements of this field from a new perspective and high angle, with comprehensive, up-to-date, and practical content that is easy to understand.
