Handbook of Neuro-Imaging for the Ophthalmologist

Description

Neuroimaging plays a critical part in the evaluation of disorders of the eye, orbit and visual pathways. CT and MRI are the key imaging modalities and it is essential for the ophthalmologist to understand the scope and limitations of these techniques. This practical book covers the basics of CT and MR imaging, selection criteria, and interpretation of the findings, all exemplified with case presentations
