In the beginning after Dandy's publication in 1918, ventriculo-
graphy and pneumencephalography were the main tools in the
neuroradiographical examination of brain tumours. Later on,
cerebral angiography after Egaz Moniz in 1927, has been more and
more commonly used. Now it appears to be the most important
neuroradiological examination in tumours of the great hemispheres.
Up till some years ago, air studies were the predominant
examinations in lesions of the brainstem and the contents of the
posterior fossa. Gradually angiographic examination for lesions in
these regions has been more frequently used. Nowadays angiographic
examination of the mesencephalon proves to be of increasing
importance. However, some neuro- radiologists feel inhibited. They
fear difficulties when reading the angiogram, even if the
subtraction method is applied. Like other workers in the field of
neuroradiology and neuro- surgery they will be very pleased with
the edition of Wacken- heim and Braun's monograph. These authors
are already well known because of their excellent air studies in
mesencephalic lesions. With this book they provide us with a most
valuable and clear guide to the inter- pretation of normal and
pathologic angiograms, including capillarograms, of the
mesencephalic regions.
