Riassunto

Written by world-renowned scientists, the volume provides a state-of-the-art on the most recent MRI techniques related to MS, and it is an indispensable tool for all those working in this field. The context in which this book exists is that there is an increasing perception that modern MR methodologies should be more extensively employed in clinical trials to derive innovative information.

Recensione:

From the reviews:

"This book is to ‘provide a complete and up-to-date overview of the technical, methodological, and clinical issues related to the application of MR imaging in MS trials of neurodegeneration.’ ... the strength of this compact book would be its value as a compilation of material that is not so much novel as it is difficult to find in a single volume. ... It will provide a convenient reference resource for MS investigators interested in the current status of neurodegeneration imaging studies in MS ... ." (American Journal of Neuroradiology, Vol. 29, October, 2008)
