Description
This volume covers both body and neurologic magnetic resonance imaging, providing guidance through its case study format. The case studies examine commonly encountered diseases of the brain; head and neck; spine; chest and cardiovascular system; abdomen and pelvis; and musculoskeletal system. The text provides systematic information on clinical history, radiographic findings, MRI techniques used, section planes, pulse sequences, contrast enhancement agents, and how the diagnosis was reached. Nearly 1000 high-resolution MR images complement the text throughout.
