Now in a new, Third Edition, the still unparalleled Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain and Spine delivers cutting-edge information on nearly every aspect of clinical neuroradiology. Leading neuroimagers, innovative MRI physicists, and veteran clinical neurospecialists show how to generate state-of-the-art images and delineate crucial clinical/pathologic MR imaging correlations.

This edition features brand-new chapters on diffusion MRI, perfusion MRI, task activation functional MRI, epilepsy, and psychiatric disorders and major revisions to existing chapters. Updated images ensure the clearest state-of-the-art views. Differential diagnosis tables have been reformatted for greater clarity.
