About this book

Written by internationally renowned experts, this volume is a collection of chapters dealing with imaging diagnosis and interventional therapies in neuroradiology and diseases of the spine. The different topics are disease-oriented and encompass all the relevant imaging modalities including X-ray technology, nuclear medicine, ultrasound and magnetic resonance, as well as image-guided interventional techniques. It represents a unique experience for residents in radiology as well as for experienced radiologists wishing to be updated on the current state of the art.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"This is a syllabus associated with the 40th International Diagnostic Course in Davos (IDKD) on neuroimaging held in 2008. … provides an overview of the current state of the art and latest developments in neuroimaging of the brain, head, neck and spine. … used by the course participants and others. … The audience includes radiology residents, general radiologists, and clinicians involved with neuroimaging, and neurosurgeons and neurologists. … It stands alone in our library … and it is a worthy contribution to the literature." (James Milburn, Doody’s Review Service, October, 2009)
