Description
This state-of-the-art, two-volume set is a comprehensive account of the latest imaging techniques for both diagnosis and image-guided therapy for the many diseases of the nervous system. The book provides summary boxes and tables covering the classification of pathology, key features of the disorder, and differential diagnosis, as well as, essential color images. An accompanying CD-ROM provides the images from the text plus bonus images and cases in a convenient electronic format.
- Examines both the peripheral and central nervous systems-coverage not found in other texts.
- Integrates recent research discoveries, both clinical and basic science, with clinical utilization.
- Offers material on disorders of neural development, behavior and cognition.
- Discusses traditional imaging topics, plus new diseases such as those affecting neural development, cognition, and behavior.
- Features the work of a multidisciplinary team of contributors, including neuroradiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroanatomists, physiologists, and physicists.
- Includes a CD-ROM that features all the images from the 2-volume set and test cases related to each chapter of the text.
- Presents the hot topics in today's practice, including a chapter on neurobehavioral disorders.
- Chapter 10, A Functional Atlas of Brain Vascular Territories is a four-color presentation of illustrations and color-coded text.
