Diagnostic Imaging: Pediatric Neuroradiology, Second Edition is a useful tool for all health professionals involved in
ordering, performing, or interpreting imaging studies of the child's brain, head, neck, spinal column, and spinal
cord. The book consists of diagnoses of all common disorders of the pediatric nervous system and many that are not
common. For each diagnosis, information is included concerning the clinical presentation(s) of affected patients, the
best sequences to perform for imaging analysis, what each imaging sequence is expected to show (in both common and
uncommon presentations), and examples of images showing the key features. In addition, information is included
concerning the pathophysiology and pathology of the disorders being discussed, and some basic information concerning
the causative genes (when appropriate).
In addition to the diagnoses, the book contains introductory chapters in multiple sections that give background on
basic embryology, anatomy, and physiology as well as typical imaging features of normal structures in areas being
imaged. Put together, the contents of the book make it useful for readers of many different backgrounds and at nearly
all stages of training as well as practicing health professionals.
