Opis

Praise for this book:
This
is a valuable book that offers the authors' clinical experience and
classic cases in the area of traumatic head and neck injury. Although there are other similar books available, the conciseness and large number of high quality images make this book stand out. -- Doody Enterprises

Imaging of Traumatic Brain Injury is a radiological
reference that covers all aspects of neurotrauma imaging and provides a
clinical overview of traumatic brain injury (TBI). It describes the
imaging features of acute head trauma, the pathophysiology of TBI, and
the application of advanced imaging technology to brain-injured
patients. Key Features:

• Covers acute as well as chronic traumatic brain injury
• Written in an easily accessible format, with pearls and summary boxes at the end of each chapter
• Includes
  state-of-the-art imaging techniques, including the multiplanar
  format, the utility of multiplanar reformats, perfusion imaging,
  susceptibility weighted
  imaging, and advanced MRI techniques
• Contains over 250 high-quality images

This book will serve as a practical reference for
practicing radiologists as well as radiology residents and fellows,
neurosurgeons, trauma surgeons, and emergency physicians.
