Therefore, it starts with numerous laboratory cases, since it is the strong opinion of the author that it is only after gain- ing sufficient laboratory experience that the special- ist can be sufficiently competent in applying this new method in the operating room. It might be quite tempting to try out this new method prematurely, but it is unsuitable for learning ‘by doing’ or by ‘trial and error.’ Therefore, only prior knowledge of a sufficient number of ‘land- marks’ will enhance the professional’s ‘insight,’ and this can easily be achieved in the laboratory, or at least by an ENS course (www.ens-surgery.com, link: ENS-course). Only then can this new tool be fully employed to let us reach beyond the current boundaries of our expertise. For the result-oriented reader, however, the major focus of interest will be in the third chapter of the book: “ Special credit is due to Prof. Dr. G. Schackert in Dresden, who agreed to complete the clinical series previously started in Mainz. Major credit also goes to Prof. Dr. A. Perneczky for his willingness to support this project exploiting previously uncharted territo- ry; after his initial strong support overriding priori- ties compelled him to hand on the project to the present author. Prof. Dr. W. Kriz and Prof. Dr. K. Tiedemann supported the project by hosting consec- utive ENS courses. My special thanks go to Messrs. ALOKA (Tokyo, Japan) and Messrs. R. Wolf (Knittlingen, Germany) for technical support and for providing the necessary equipment. Finally, I cannot omit to acknowledge the help- ful assistance of all those who have contributed to the realization of this project, and especially Mrs. Heide Roesler (www.creativeartservice.de), who patiently prepared the sophisticated computer graphics and the cover design for the book. Special thanks also go to Dr. Otto R. Maas and Dr. Andrew Alcock for review- ing the draft and making numerous valuable sugges- tions on the proper presentation of the subject. Greifswald, Klaus Dieter Maria Resch September 2005 ”.
