by Laurie A. Loevner MD (Author), David M. Yousem MD MBA (Author)

This volume in the best-selling “Case Review” series uses hundreds of case studies to challenge your knowledge of a full range of topics in brain imaging. With 170 brand new cases, new coverage of MRA, CTA, MR spectroscopy and multi-detectors and over 600 brilliant images, this is your ideal concise, economical, and user-friendly tool for self assessment in this specialty!

• Utilizes case studies organized into “Opening Round,” “Fair Game,” and “Challenge” sections, so you can test yourself at varying difficulty levels.
• Provides at-a-glance review/self-testing of brain imaging cases ideal for preparing for the boards in brain imaging, the CAQ exam for neuroradiology or for the general radiologist ready for re-certification.
• Mimics the official exam formats and daily practice environment by giving you cases/images as unknowns with three to four questions; then, on the flip side of the page, diagnosis, answers to the questions, additional commentary, and references to the corresponding volume in Elsevier’s popular Requisites Series.
• Includes 600 state of the art images to effectively compliment and support the text and provide a clear picture of what you can expect, both in test-taking and in practice.

• Includes 170 new cases and over 50 new diagnoses so you can keep pace with the latest developments.
• Includes a greater emphasis on differential diagnosis.
• Adds coverage of MRA, CTA, MR spectroscopy and multi-detectors to keep you completely current.
