The Council on Scientific Affairs of the California Medical Association presents the following inventory of items of progress in neurosurgery. Each item, in the judgement of a panel of knowledgeable physicians, has recently become reasonably firmly established, both as to scientific fact and important clinical significance. The items are presented in simple epitome, and an authoritative reference, both to the item itself and to the subject as a whole, is generally given for those who may be unfamiliar with a particular item. The purpose is to assist busy practitioners, students, researchers, and scholars to stay abreast of these items of progress in neurosurgery that have recently achieved a substantial degree of authoritative acceptance, whether in their own field of special interest or another. The items of progress listed below were selected by the Advisory Panel to the Section on Neurosurgery of the California Medical Association, and the summaries were prepared under its direction.
加利福尼亚医学协会科学事务委员会列出了神经外科领域的以下进展清单。在一组知识渊博的医生看来，每一项进展最近在科学事实和重要临床意义方面都已相当稳固地确立。这些项目以简单的摘要形式呈现，对于那些可能不熟悉某个特定项目的人，通常会给出该项目本身以及整个主题的权威参考文献。目的是帮助忙碌的从业者、学生、研究人员和学者跟上神经外科领域这些最近已获得相当程度权威认可的进展项目，无论这些进展是否属于他们自己特别感兴趣的领域。以下列出的进展项目由加利福尼亚医学协会神经外科分会咨询小组选定，摘要在其指导下编写。
