520 _aThis 3rd edition of our Textbook of Stroke Medicine contains mostly completely revised chapters and reflects the tremendous advances in our field since the first edition 2010. It has been a fascinating challenge to update and renew the contents without extending the total length of the book. But following the developments in our field and the recommendations of many colleagues, we added two new chapters: "Cerebral Small-Vessel Disease" and "Intensive Care of Stroke." The chapter on endovascular interventions has been elongated due to recent trials offering new treatment options. Over time, this volume has served well the purpose and expectations of our younger colleagues working in Stroke Medicine. Hopefully it will continue to do so. The book is focused on the "beginning specialist," many of whom have come from all over the world to take the "Masters' Degree in Stroke Medicine" at the Danube University Krems in Austria, a programme that has been set up by the European Stroke Organisation and has been endorsed by the World Stroke Organization since 2007. We want to thank all contributors for their efforts to update and supplement their chapters. We are very grateful that they have finished their tasks within an ambitious time plan in spite of many clinical and other duties in their academic lives. Our thanks also go to Susanne Tabernig, MD for providing excellent summaries for every chapter. We also thank our editors from Cambridge University Press, especially Emily Jones, who has been very patient with us and diligently provided guidance and help
