Description
Make efficient, accurate diagnoses and prepare for imaging exams with a multitude of differential diagnoses accompanied by hundreds of high-quality, unknown cases in neuroradiology. Neuroradiology: Key Differential Diagnoses and Clinical Questions, 2nd Edition, helps you master the skills you need for interpreting imaging of the head, neck, brain and spine for adults and children. All-new cases and extensively revised content throughout bring you up to date and equip you to reach a definitive diagnosis for common, complex, and rare cases.- Applies pattern analysis techniques to distinguish similar-looking diagnostic considerations.- Shows how diagnostic ambiguities are resolved by comparing and contrasting different entities.- Includes numerous new differential diagnoses.- Provides new and extensively revised content on pediatric neuroradiology, including more complex cases such as symmetric diffusion abnormality in an infant, cortical malformations, and complex spinal dysraphism.- Helps you avoid diagnostic pitfalls by recognizing significant variations in the clinical presentation of different diseases.
