Book description
Praise for this book:
An excellent textbook accompanied by high quality illustrations
illustrating clinical applications, [and the] advantages and
limitations of ultrasound examinations of the central nervous
system.--RAD Magazine
Neurosonology and Neuroimaging of Stroke is a
comprehensive reference for the diagnosis and management of
cerebrovascular disease using neurosonology. Divided into two main
parts, the book opens with an in-depth overview of the fundamental
principles of neurosonology. It describes ultrasound anatomy,
examination techniques, the essential technical concepts for clinical
applications, as well as the pathogenesis of stroke and vascular
pathology. The second part of the book presents 30 cases of various
levels of difficulty. For each case, the book provides concise
descriptions of clinical presentation, initial neuroradiological
findings, suspected diagnosis, the angiological questions, and final
diagnosis. Each case concludes with a detailed discussion, enabling
the clinician to gain a solid understanding of the diagnosed disease
and the angiologic questions arising from the case.
Features:
Practical discussion of 30 clinical scenarios thoroughly prepares
the clinician for the range of frequently encountered problems
Consistent presentation aids rapid reference to cases of interest
More than 750 high-quality illustrations, including full-color
Doppler images
Nearly 100 video clips on the accompanying MediaCenter
web page demonstrate anatomy, imaging concepts, and select cases
included in the book A reference and casebook in a single volume,
Neurosonology and Neuroimaging of Strokeis ideal for
clinicians seeking to optimize care for patients by enhancing their
knowledge of this important diagnostic tool.
"The diagrams are excellent and the text is beautifully
annotated...The authors...have produced an excellent textbook
accompanied by high quality illustrations illustrating clinical
applications, [and] advantages and limitations of ultrasound
examinations of the central nervous system."--RAD Magazine “This
book will prove very useful to neurologists.”--Archives of Neurology
"The imagery is abundant, crisp, and state-of-the-art. Nearly every
clinical case shows correlative imaging, often with 3D reconstructions
of vital areas of the vascular system. The examples in the clinical case
presentations include the major diagnoses one is likely to encounter,
and the written material allows one of the follow each case as the
imaging unfolds...highly recommended for every neuroradiology library,
and for those with interest in this field, it would be a wise personal
purchase."--American Journal of Neuroradiology "Systematically
organized...Ultrasound principles are described and illustrated with
diagrams and images...contains 30 case scenarios grouped according to
the expected difficulty of neurosonology exploration and
interpretation."--ETDE's Energy Database Director, Neurologic
