In this text atlas of neuroimaging the author provides a review of
the pathologies and diseases that affect the head, brain, skull
base, face, spine, and cord. The case presentation format of this
handbook covers the important clinical and neuropathological
aspects of the disease process. The book contains 350 selected
pathologies, represented in 750 high resolution MR images. It also
covers the aspects of neurological disorders and the fundamental
aspects of the physics of magnetic resonance, spectroscopy, as well
as a review of MR techniques. Given its scope, this book is of
interest to radiologists involved in MR interpretation,
neuroradiologists seeking an up-to-date review, and all workers in
the field of diagnostic and therapeutic neurology.
Disease whether it is acute, chronic, or at end stage, is all
too regularly accompanied by pain. Pain is often difficult to
control, in malignant disease in particular, even by using
appropriate medications. Anesthesiologists and pain therapists have
developed new invasive therapies including nerve block,
sympatholysis, and neurolysis useful for both diagnosis and pain
management. To insure the efficiency and safety of these
procedures, and furthermore for elaborate techniques such as
vertebroplasty, cementoplasty, and radio frequency bone ablation,
imaging guidance becomes mandatory. This state-of-the-art book
describes the techniques elaborated by interventional radiologists
in the treatment and palliation of a variety of benign and
malignant painful conditions. Each chapter written by an expert in
the field concentrates on a particular aspect of pain management,
with emphasis on practical issues. This book will serve as an
invaluable source of information for the radiologist willing to
learn about new pain therapy techniques aimed at optimizing or
replacing more invasive traditional methods.
A few years ago, at the Symposium of Neuroradiology in Rome,
ZIEDSES DES PLANTES made a decisive contribution to cerebral
angiography with photographic subtraction. From this time on,
technical advances, anatomical findings, therapeutic tests such as
embolization, development of stereo taxy, and computerized axial
tomography have opened a wide field for cerebral angiography. These
important findings became the subject of a scientific meeting. The
quality of the presentations and the results of each re port made
this a most interesting symposium. I am very grateful to all those
who contributed to make it a success. G. SALAMON Marseille, October
