Reviews

From the reviews: This is a syllabus associated with the 40th International Diagnostic Course in Davos (IDKD) on neuroimaging held in 2008. ! provides an overview of the current state of the art and latest developments in neuroimaging of the brain, head, neck and spine. ! used by the course participants and others. ! The audience includes radiology residents, general radiologists, and clinicians involved with neuroimaging, and neurosurgeons and neurologists. ! It stands alone in our library ! and it is a worthy contribution to the literature. (James Milburn, Doody's Review Service, October, 2009)
