A valuable addition to any residency library...highly recommended for the student of neuroradiology preparing for the boards or the CAQ...provides an excellent overview of brain imaging...useful for self-testing...-American Journal of Roentgenology Written by the renowned neuroradiologists at UCSF, this new teaching atlas contains more than 200 cases and 1,000 radiographs illustrating a wide range of diseases and problems in CNS imaging. Each case provides clinical history, images, and a list of differential diagnoses in a format that is tailored for self-testing or quick review. Cases cover valuable teaching points for daily practice from the straightforward to the advanced - offering a challenge to practitioners and residents alike. You'll find a focus on real-life clinical problems, including neoplasms, infections, dural and leptomeningeal processes, white matter disease, trauma, congenital malformations, phakomatoses, and cranial neuropathies. Pearls and pitfalls from the authors target important points and sources of error in image interpretation. Covers pathology, diagnosis, clinical findings, treatment, complications, and prognosis Differential diagnoses are thoroughly covered, highlighting similar clinical presentations User-friendly format makes it ideal as a clinical reference or review book More than 1,000 large radiographs crystallize disease entities Reviews of current literature, with short lists of recommended reading Teaching Atlas of Brain Imaging is useful at several levels: for residents or fellows preparing for board examinations and rotating through the sub-specialty; for fellows and practitioners looking for help in passing the Certificate of Added Qualification (CAQ) in neuroradiology; and for general radiologists who will find it to be an excellent text for quick and easy reference in daily practice.

A Teaching Atlas of Case Studies in Diagnostic Imaging is an essential educational tool for radiology residents preparing for fellowship and board examinations, and for practising radiologists. This extensive atlas is comprised of six sections, covering chest, musculoskeletal, urogenital, gastrointestinal, and neurological imaging, and a final section containing miscellaneous images. The book contains case studies which help explain the techniques used in diagnostic imaging and indications for their use. Each section of the book includes rare or uncommon cases with relevant radiographic images, followed by discussion on clinical presentation and a description of the main radiological pathologies. The section on musculoskeletal imaging includes the latest procedures, recent advances and trends, bringing the atlas firmly up to date. A Teaching Atlas of Case Studies in Diagnostic Imaging is enhanced by nearly 600 radiographic images, and written by expert radiologists from the United Arab Emirates, ensuring authoritative content throughout. Key Points Collection of rare and uncommon case studies covering imaging of the chest, musculoskeletal, urogenital, gastrointestinal, and neurological systems 585 radiographic images UAE author team of senior consultant radiologists

Provides 125 cases that address the challenging "real-life" clinical problems that radiologists are likely to encounter. Each chapter presents a different case with a complete patient work-up that includes clinical presentation, diagnosis, differential diagnoses, and more. This book is suitable for clinicians at all levels.

Devoted specifically to the complex region of the head and neck, this clinically oriented book brings you up-to-date on new imaging protocols and patient strategies. You'll find complete coverage of all imaging modalities, including their advantages and disadvantages in obtaining a complete work-up of the patient. More than 100 cases stress "real-life" clinical problems, supported by 700 high-quality radiographs and illustrations.

Each volume in this series features a wide range of challenging cases in radiology for self assessment and review. All cases stress the "real-life" presentation of a specific clinical problem. Highlighted "pearls", "pitfalls", and "controversial issues" round off each case providing useful hints.

Brain imaging has been successfully used to generate image-based biomarkers for various neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and related dementias, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury, brain tumors, depression, schizophrenia, etc. However, accurate brain image-based diagnosis at the individual level remains elusive, and this applies to the diagnosis of neuropathological diseases as well as clinical syndromes. In recent years, deep learning techniques, due to their ability to learn complex patterns from large amounts of data, have had remarkable success in various fields, such as computer vision and natural language processing. Applying deep learning methods to brain imaging-assisted diagnosis, while promising, is facing challenges such as insufficiently labeled data, difficulty in interpreting diagnosis results, variations in data acquisition in multi-site projects, integration of multimodal data, clinical heterogeneity, etc. The goal of this research topic is to gather cutting-edge research that showcases the application of deep learning methods in brain imaging for the diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disorders. We encourage submissions that demonstrate novel approaches to overcome various abovementioned difficulties and achieve more accurate, reliable, generalizable, and interpretable diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disorders in this field.

Although the field of Neuro-Oncology has grown considerably in the last 10 to 15 years and has a rather extensive literature, there are no comprehensive, "single-source books that summarize the current literature and future trends of neuroimaging in neuro-oncology. This book covers this topic in more comprehensive fashion, making it an important addition to the armamentarium of physicians that care for patients with brain tumors and other neuro-oncological disorders. Well-founded in basic science, it includes chapters that provide an overview of relevant background material in critical areas such as physics, contrast agents, ultra-high field brain MRI, and molecular imaging.

Case-Based Brain Imaging, Second Edition, an update of the highly regarded Teaching Atlas of Brain Imaging,provides full coverage of the latest technological advancements in brain imaging. It contains more than 150 cases that provide detailed discussion of the pathology, treatment, and prognosis of common and rare brain diseases, congenital/developmental malformations, cranial nerves, and more. This comprehensive case-based review of brain imaging will help radiologists, neurologists, and neurosurgeons in their training and daily practice. Key Features: More than 1,000 updated high-resolution images created on state-of-the-art equipment Advanced CT and MR imaging keeps readers current on imaging modalities Pathological descriptions clarify the pathophysiology of the disease Pearls and pitfalls help readers avoid common traps and aid in rapid interpretation Authors are world-renowned experts on brain imaging Radiology residents and neuroradiology fellows preparing for board exams and beginning practitioners will find this book an invaluable tool in learning how to correctly diagnose pathologies of the brain.
