Cns Imaging For Postgraduates

The book offers a comprehensive, exam-oriented guide to CNS imaging, covering both brain and spine with emphasis on postgraduate training needs. It begins with modern developments in the field such as Artificial Intelligence, CT, and MR technology, providing students with an updated perspective. Core chapters cover neuroanatomy, trauma, infections, demyelinating and dysmyelinating disorders, neurodegeneration, and stroke, with strong clinical€“imaging correlation.
A structured section on tumors addresses intra-axial, extra-axial, intraventricular, sellar/parasellar, CP angle, pineal, corpus callosum, and spinal tumors. Dedicated coverage of the spinal axis includes anatomy, congenital anomalies, CVJ malformations, trauma, infections, degenerative and demyelinating conditions, and tumors at different compartments.
Special topics such as phakomatosis, orbital lesions, craniovertebral junction anomalies, and spectroscopy enhance the academic depth of the book. Practical additions like signs in neuroradiology, synopsis of imaging modalities, and miscellaneous pearls provide quick-reference value for exams and reporting. The content balances fundamentals, pathology, and technological advances, ensuring utility for postgraduate students, residents, and young consultants.
