Riassunto

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.

Dr. Behroze Vachha is Chief of Neuroradiology and Associate Professor of Radiology at UMass Chan Medical School. Prior to her current role, she was a neuroradiologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and served on the faculty of Weil Cornell Medical School in New York.  Dr. Vachha received her clinical training in Diagnostic Radiology at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard University followed by a Neuroradiology fellowship at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard University.  She also has a PhD in Human Development and Communication Sciences.  Her academic and research interests include using advanced imaging tools to link pathophysiology, neurocognition and clinical medicine to improve care for people with various neurological disorders. She is actively involved in teaching and supervising radiology residents, neuroradiology fellows and medical students in the clinical aspects of neuroradiology as well as mentoring them in neuroimaging research.

Dr. Gul Moonis is a Professor of Radiology at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York.   Her academic responsibilities also include teaching and supervising radiology residents, neuroradiology fellows and medical students. Dr. Moonis is a member of the Radiological Society of North America and American Society of Neuroradiology and a senior member of the Eastern Neurological Society and American Society of Head and Neck Radiology. In addition to all aspects of general neuroradiology, Dr Moonis has clinical expertise in radiology of the head and neck. Dr. Moonis’ research currently focuses on imaging of the temporal bone which has resulted in publications, book chapters and review articles. She is particularly dedicated to mentoring residents and fellows in clinical research projects. A gifted educator, Dr. Moonis has won numerous teaching awards and has been an invited speaker at various national and international meetings in the field of head and neck radiology.

Dr. Max Wintermark is a neuroradiologist with a specific interest and expertise in imaging brain, neck and spine tumors, stroke, traumatic brain injury and psychiatric disorders. He received his training in Diagnostic Radiology at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland followed by a fellowship in Diagnostic Neuroradiology at the University of California, San Francisco. He has a degree in biomedical engineering from the Swiss federal Institute of Technology and a master in clinical research from the University of San Francisco. He worked as a faculty at the University of California, San Francisco, at the University of Virginia, at Stanford, and he is currently a Professor and Chair of Neuroradiology at the Stanford University. Dr. Wintermark is the Editor-in-Chief of the American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR) and the President-Elect of the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR).

Dr. Tarik Massoud is a physician-scientist and Professor of Neuroradiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. He trained in Radiology and Neuroradiology in Oxford, UCLA, and Michigan, and held academic positions at UCLA, Cambridge, and Stanford. His academic interests include molecular and translational imaging of the brain especially in neuro-oncology and cerebrovascular diseases, experimental aspects of neuroimaging, clinical neuroradiology, neuroradiological anatomy, and research training of radiologists and scientists.
