What Radiology Residents Need to Know: Neuroradiology

This book is an introduction to  neuroradiology, specifically designed for the needs of first-year  residents. Currently available textbooks, while excellent reference  books, provide far too much material than is needed for radiology  residents, particularly those on first-year rotations. This book covers  information important both from a practical standpoint and for later  board preparation in a short and simple format.The book is divided into  three main sections: Brain, Spine, and Head and Neck. Using an  easy-to-read bulleted format, this book covers all the necessary  material for a first year resident and high-yield, often-tested topics,  making it additionally a useful study guide for board preparation later  in residency. In addition, it provides valuable tips on how to approach  and interpret CT and MRIs of the brain, spine and head and neck.  Additional included coverage makes it useful in later rotations of more  specialized areas like the eyes and temporal bone structures.Key topics  include neuroimaging structural and functional anatomy,  neurodegenerative disorders, and facial and skull base fracture imaging.  Like other books in this series, a critical component of What Radiology  Residents Need to Know: Neuroradiology will be the additional images  found online only. These images amount to twice the number in the print  and e-book versions to fully illustrate points made in the text.This is  an ideal guide for first year radiology residency learning  neuroradiology.
