Summary:

Written by recognized authorities, this volume is a complete, practical, and thoroughly illustrated guide to interventional endovascular neurotheraphy. The book shows readers how to use today's latest imaging modalities, equipment. and endovascular and percutaneous techniques to accurately diagnose and treat disorders of the brain and spine. Chapters review the pathophysiology and imaging of stroke, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations and fistulae, and tumors and describe specific treatment procedures. Each procedural chapter follows a consistent format and includes technical considerations, equipment, patient selection, detailed "how-to" instructions, and a review of the literature. Extensive illustrations help the reader to visualize vascular anatomy and techniques.
