Beschreibung

This atlas of spinal MRI is the fruit of interdisciplinary cooperation among radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, traumatologists, and neurosurgeons. It is clinically oriented, covering all important diseases and injuries of the spine. Numerous illustrations are supplemented by concise descriptions of anatomy and pathophysiology, normal and abnormal MRI appearance, diagnostic pitfalls, and the clinical significance of MRI. The contents are arranged in a logical, accessible sequence, for quick reference: Normal Anatomy and Variants; Congenital and Developmental Anomalies; Trauma and Fractures; Degenerative Changes; Inflammatory Conditions; Tumors and Tumor-like Lesions; Postoperative Changes; and Suggested Reading. The clear and didactic style enables readers to assimilate the fundamentals of spinal anatomy and disease states as a basis for understanding diagnostic strategies and surgical management. By combining descriptions of the clinical manifestation of spinal disorders with the corresponding MRI findings, the book helps readers to develop a meaningful approach to the interpretation of MRI of the spine.
