This book provides clinicians with a reliable reference, written by
prominent figures in neuroradiology and old age psychiatry, which
draws together current knowledge of late life mental disorders as
revealed by neuroimaging. A highly illustrated introductory chapter
provides a useful overview of the various techniques of
neuroimaging now available. The following chapters, also
extensively illustrated, survey the contribution of neuroimaging to
understanding the specific psychiatric disorders of late life, and
the book concludes with guidelines for clinicians on the choice of
imaging for the investigation of their patients. For researchers
this is a useful and authoritative review of current knowledge
regarding neuroimaging and the older psychiatric patient. Its
primary aim, however, is to educate and advise clinicians dealing
with the protean manifestations of psychiatric disorder in later
life.
