This practical-minded text helps the radiologist and the clinician understand diffusion-weighted MR imaging. The book?s 14 chapters range from basic principles to interpretation of diffusion-weighted MR imaging and specific disease. It is aimed at all those who are involved in neuroimaging, including: residents, fellows, staff, as well as neurologists and neurosurgeons. Diffusion-weighted MR imaging is widely accepted as a means to identify acute infarction but also to differentiate many other pathologic conditions. Understanding diffusion-weighted imaging is important for radiologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons as well as radiology technologists. During the past four years, the expert authors have presented over 30 exhibits and scientific reports on diffusion-weighted imaging at the RSNA and the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR). More than 10 of these exhibits and presentations have been recognized by specific awards.
