Description
With an emphasis on both diagnostic and therapeutic applications, this multidisciplinary, 2-volume set presents today's state-of-the-art, high-tech developments in neuroradiology. It examines MRI, CT, PET, SPECT, all forms of angiography and the use of perfusion/diffusion and metabolic imaging techniques for both the diagnosis and therapy of the many diseases affecting both the central and peripheral nervous systems. An innovative CD-ROM-available separately or packaged with the text-features all of the texts and illustrations from the 2-volume set; a selection of approximately 1,000 "test" images and 22 "how-to" video clips of interventional and therapeutic techniques.
