NEURORADIOLOGY - THE REQUISITES

In this update of the 1994 edition, Grossman (New York U. School of Medicine) and Yousem (Johns Hopkins U. School of Medicine)--who display a sense of humor rare in a medical text--incorporate advances in neuroimaging such as magnetic resonance spectroscopy and perfusion imaging. After a duly serious treatment, Bob and Dave--as they call themselves--discuss the "good, bad, and ugly" of approaches to reading a case and medicolegal pitfalls. An outline of key diagnostic parameters is appended.
