| Summary |
This thoroughly updated Fifth Edition is a highly illustrated text-reference that describes the full range of imaging disorders of the brain, spine, head and neck in children. It is rooted in the principle that the proper interpretation of studies requires the acquisition of high-quality images and an understanding of the basic concepts of neuroembryology, normal development, and pathophysiology. Coverage includes the most on everyday practice. The focus is on CT and MRI because these are the optimal imaging modalities in children. A key feature of this book highlights the essentials for obtaining good images and understanding normal development, which helps the reader to distinguish normal developmental changes from disease |
